The Wine:

Sweet, velvety and intense, this wine opens with vibrant aromas of violets, currants, blackpepper and earth. Lush flavors of cherry liquor, almonds and raspberries playfully dance on the palate. Fired by a peppery mid-palate, nuances of roasted coffee bean, licorice and smoke, melt into an elegant, almost endless finish.
