Highly aromatic with notes of cassis, black cherry, graphite/pencil lead, cedar, wild violets, and a subtle touch of tobacco leaf. Medium-to-full-bodied with remarkable focus and harmony. Crisp acidity and fine-grained, airy tannins support layers of dark fruit, mint, and mineral salinity on a long, refined finish.
