Notes: This wine has a deep, rich aroma—think leather, a touch of sea breeze, and a mix of walnuts, berries, and leafy greens. There’s a little hint of tobacco, earthiness, and even some beans and tar. On the palate, it’s fresh and juicy with a nice balance of hazelnut, pepper, dried herbs, and a soft cocoa note in the background. The tannins are smooth, like fine sand, and it lingers nicely with flavors of ripe fruit, soy, black tea, black olives, and a light, spicy chocolate finish.
