Tasting Note:June 2, 2017

Medium garnet red. Strong nose of cedar, potpourri, and sandalwood. A touch sweet, smoky and so well integrated. A bit of cinnamon and toasted red cherries. Low tannins (4/10) with a medium body. Dark berries, smoky notes and woody notes on the palate. Nice and savory. Well integrated and strong alcohol (18.5%). Medium plus finish.
