Saturated ruby. Powerful, highly expressive aromas of blackberry and blueberry liqueur, vanilla, cola, anise and potpourri. A huge, mouthfilling wine that is improbably graceful, offering sweet cherry and dark berry flavors along with exotic floral and spice qualities. Seamless, velvety and nicely focused, finishing with strong thrust and lingering notes of cherry-cola and sappy dark berries. Quintessential, Napa, CA)
