This high-toned, well-made wine shows rich clove, tobacco and currant notes beneath its hit of acidity. Firm, woody tannins provide grip, with complexity and full-bodied weight.

Smoky, toasty oak casts a shadow over the juicy currant and plum flavors, accented by shades of anise and cedar, with firm, gravelly tannins that offer a chunky, pebbly texture. Drink now through 2032. 500 cases made.
