Still in barrel in May, 2013, the wine should be in bottle by the summer of 2013. Inky in color, with an intensity of raw material to match, the wine is intense, concentrated and powerful. Everything is in balance. This finish seems to go on and on. With all this going on, the wine remains fresh, clean and pure.

Delivering a rich, ripe, juicy mouthful of concentrated sweet, fresh, black raspberry jam, kirsch, black cherrry, pepper and garrigue. The wine is lush, long, lusty and sells for a fair price.
