    Smoke and burnt rubber are prominent aromas. This PV feels grabby and pushy, with hard tannins. Creamy candied-berry flavors are sweet and chocolaty, while this tastes of oak, caramel and vanilla on the finish.

    Natural and oak-based spice aromas accent tarry black cherry, blackberry and gritty, toasty scents. Full and chewy on the palate, this tastes oaky, with fully toasted blackberry flavors. A spicy, resiny, oak-heavy finish is right for this wine. Drink through 2019.
