Opaque ruby in color, with an earthy, cigar box, and roasted herb-scented nose with hints of red fruits and dried nuts, this medium to full-bodied wine possesses excellent concentration, moderate tannin, and impressive intensity and length. This unfiltered effort should be even better after another 1-3 years of cellaring; it will last for 10-12 years.
