Ripe blackberry and cherry aromas are complicated by suggestions of exotic spices, olive, vanilla and pungent flowers. Youthfully chewy, appealingly sweet black and blue fruit flavors gain depth and spiciness with air, while a smoky mineral element adds lift and back-end cut. Building tannins add grip to an impressively long, floral-driven finish that leaves allspice and cola notes behind.
