2013 Saxum Broken Stones

Estate: Saxum Vineyards

Region: Willow Creek District, Paso Robles, Central Coast, California, United States of America



Tasting Note:February 08, 2017

Deep ruby and purplish red. Layered nose with black olives, dark fruits, anise, and a little woody. Love the complexity and layers in the nose. A touch of floral too. Full bodied and heavy tannins (8/10). Savory attack with olives and then layers of dark fruits. Great iron notes and a touch of gravel. Long and never ending finish.
