Soft ripe raisiny aromas are slightly baked and toasty. A saturated firm palate shows proper balance, while flavors of prune, blackberry, chocolate and spicy oak finish strong and tannic, but not hard. Drink through 2018.

Woodsy at first, then more foresty and stretched. The nose is peppery and light on fruit, while the palate shows tight cherry and raspberry flavors alongside edgy, invigorating tannins and acidity. A lively wine with bite and modest offsetting sweetness to the overriding snap.
