Anna-Christina Cabrales - Wine Enthusiast
This wine is intensely juicy with overripe blackberries and cassis with soft accents of fresh thyme, rosemary and black peppercorn. Full-bodied and balanced, its vibrant acidity tempers youthful tannins and gives way to a ripe, red-fruited mid-palate. A savory layer follows, loaded with crushed blackberry, briny black olives, granite and flaky salt. Aerate well before enjoying.
