What experts say about this wine

100

Wine Enthusiast

Aromas of coffee bean, orange zest and black cherry pave the way for blackberry, dark plum, caramel, espresso and mint flavors. Powerful tannins and well-integrated acidity make their way into a cranberry and rose-petal-laced finish. Drink through 2041.
