Fresh blackberry and currant on the nose, with faint nutmeg spice. Violets and dark berries, laced with a faint strain of vanilla come together to finish with a solid, abrupt tannin finish. A chewiness, with peppercorns and aromatic herbs, lingers after the finish. A nifty little wine, well balanced and nimble, how a Mazda Miata might compare to a Ferrari.
