Aromatic notes of baked bread, violet, and chocolate-covered blueberry envelop the nose. The palate pushes dark and rich blackberry fruit, but the tannins remain quite soft, giving the wine a very elegant complexity. The finish pushes more dark fruit, but acidity squares it back up, and fruit lingers well beyond the last sip.
