Aromas of dark fruits, especially black currants, join with dark chocolate and light smoke on the nose. On the palate, this well-balanced wine combines black currants with baking spice, chocolate, toast, coffee, violet and vanilla notes. This stays fresh with its juicy acidity and the tannins are quite velvety. A classic, well-made example.
