“(raised in puncheons, 30% new oak): Inky purple. Sexy, floral-accented aromas and flavors of dark berry liqueur, cola and Indian spices. Juicy, penetrating and pure, with a suave blend of richness and verve. Zesty acidity provides lift and finishing cut while silky tannins help shape the exuberant fruit. 10% whole clusters were used this vintage, Sussman told me.”
