Black-red with a lighter edge. Complex yet delicate nose of white pepper, fig reduction, black raspberry, cardamom and prosciutto. Layered and packed with fruit. Round with powdery tannins that are both balanced and concentrated. Dense tannins carry the layered fruit for a lasting finish. This wine is concentrated with a warm tapestry of flavors. It is enjoyable now and will age nicely over the next four to seven years. Pair with savory duck cassoulet.
