Product Description
The nose opens on ripe black berry fruit aromas, joined on airing by notes of roasted coffee beans and black pepper. From a highly expressive attack on the black fruit found on the nose, the peppery notes that emerged with airing return on a midpalate which combines power with heft. The finish lingers on an intense array of black fruit, spice and roasted coffee bean flavors.

James SucklingEngaging cumin spices with glossy currants, black olives and tobacco leaf. A medium-to full-bodied carmenere with juicy black fruit and firm but silky tannins. Nice length, with some dark spices and olives.

Wine SpectatorTightly wound for Carmenère, but slowly reveals subtle dusty cocoa, petrichor and spice notes up front, joining black cherry flavors that ride a wave of briny olive and fresh acidity onto a finish marked by firm tannins and roasted red pepper. Best after 2025.
