Tasting Note:December 9, 2018

Deep garnet red. Spiced aromas on the nose with some peppercorn, plums and purple flowers. Quite a bit of acidity with medium tannins (5.5/10) and medium bodied. Seems a bit young with flavors of raw oak, spices, dark berries, lavender, bell peppers, burnt cherries and minerality. Medium plus finish.

Made of 100% Malbec from Pope Valley.
