Bright red-ruby. Raspberry, licorice and fig aromas lifted by sexy oak tones. Vinous and refined on the palate, with dark raspberry, currant and fig flavors complicated by a saline nuance. Nicely balanced and not at all overly sweet. A slightly high-toned quality gives the wine lovely inner-mouth aromatic lift. Finishes with firm, fine, building tannins and excellent length.
