Explosively perfumed, spice-tinged aromas of ripe blackberry, boysenberry, incense and smoky minerals acquire a floral element in the glass. Deeply concentrated and alluringly sweet, offering palate-staining dark berry liqueur, licorice, bitter chocolate and violet pastille flavors, along with an energizing touch of exotic spices. Finishes broad, chewy and extremely long, with steadily building tannins and resonating florality.
