Winemaker notes: Aromas of blue Raspberry candy, soy sauce, lilac, wet soil, tamarind, Earl-grey tea, blood orange. Flavors of tangerine, pomegranate, sassafras, saffron, pipe tobacco, spruce tips, Himalayan blackberry. Lively acidity up front with energetic and youthful tannin structure. The mid palate transitions seamlessly into a long and dark fruit driven finish. Acidity pulls forward off the finish creating a perfect pairing opportunity for rich earthy foods.
