Garnet red with brightly hued rims. Fragrant aromas with violets, cassis, blood plum, bluestone gravel, new leather couch and choc/mint. Lifted, with firm fine tannins giving a base to a silkily dark fruited palate. Juicy through the medium finish, redolent with grainy bittersweet dark chocolate. Top value.
