The Character
Tasting Notes Rich in color and flavor, right out of the gate. This wine presents a deeply saturated, garnet hue in the glass, with aromas of cassis and cigar box, and notes of dried cherries on the nose. A balanced, velvety palate showcases Ripe Satsuma plum on the entry and finishes with Bing cherry and dusty dutch cocoa. Natural acidity lends a youthful brightness enhancing it’s drink now appeal, while simultaneously structuring the wine for graceful age-ability.
