There's black cherries and hints of fresh Gala apples, gentle baking spices and light toasted oak barrel. A lovely red cherry powder texture emerges that seems to unlock aromas of sarsaparilla and raspberry-clove essence. The tannin structure is delicate, but everlasting, and the wine shows good density and plenty of age ability. The alluring style and prettiness of this wine in a youthful state could lead to a downfall of any long term aging decisions you might have, and that's quite alright.
