(includes 7% petit verdot): Inky ruby. Explosive aromas of dark berry compote, violet, vanilla and licorice, with a spicy topnote and a hint of Indian spices. Smooth and seamless on the palate, offering intense black and blue fruit flavors that gain sweetness and energy with air. Rich but lithe carmenere with excellent finishing clarity, thrust and spicy persistence. By all means give this concentrated wine at least five more years of bottle age.
