    Dark blackish purple that looks almost like squid ink. With a little time, the bouquet relaxes, becoming pungent and rich with aromas of black pepper, black raspberry, exotic dark spices and violets. Silky mouthfeel with medium acidity and lush fine tannins. We only had a quick taste of the wine, so I fear the palate didn't totally show its full capacity. I definitely picked up more of the black pepper and dark berries, but I'm confident it would evolve if given more time.

    Gorgeous dark purple color to this wine, the definition of "inky". Rich but tight nose, right after opening the bottle. It slowly opens and develops into almond, pepper, and a breadiness. With time it allows fresh raspberry, brambles, and cherry to come forward. Pure and silky in the mouth with good acidity and fine tannins.Cherry and anise are the first flavors out of the glass followed in time by pepper, cinnamon, clove and other dark fruits. Really need to drink this over the course of a night to fully understand it.
