Tasting Note:October 14, 2016

Dark ruby red. On day one the nose was a little singular with blueberries, blackberries and chalk. A little more complexity on day two, slight greenery and black cherries. Moderate tannins (6/10) with some cassis, herbs, light baking spices, nutmeg, and red cherries. Pretty well integrated with a medium plus body and medium plus off dry finish.
