Fresh and tangy, with lots of verve coming from the blue-fruit character. The nose is effusive of blueberries, dark plums, violets and slate with hints of ink and black earth. Medium-to full-bodied with juicy red and blue berries and silky, melted tannins. Flavorful, textured and juicy with a fruit-expressive finish. Lengthy, elegantly concentrated and effortless. Irresistibly delicious now, but can hold, too.
