Vivid red. Expansive red fruit liqueur, exotic spice and incense aromas are complemented by building floral and mineral flourishes. Densely packed yet light on its feet, showing outstanding clarity to its sweet black raspberry, boysenberry and floral pastille flavors, which are firmed by a core of lively acidity. Smoothly plays power off of delicacy and finishes impressively long and sappy, with well-knit tannins framing impressive lavender, vanilla and spice notes. (JR)
