Mulberry, black cherry and prune dominate the aroma of this fine wine with some herbal green tobacco and savory black olive adding another aromatic layer. Refreshing mineral notes and earthy graphite open up to reveal a floral bouquet of freshly picked violets.
Deep black fruits, - prune, sour and black cherry – with a touch of savory olive in a medium-bodied frame of dense, fine silky tannins. Complex, well balanced and smooth with a creamy texture, showing nice vivacity and depth of flavor.

Leaf fall occurred later than usual which allowed good reserves to build up in the vines. The similarly delayed onset of Winter allowed for good cold unit accumulation.
Rainfall was the lowest to date. Days were warm and nights cool. Budding occurred later and flowering was uniform. A dry, warm season resulted in compact berries with some supplementary irrigation necessary.
A cooler February allowed for even ripening. An abundant vintage of exceptional quality.
