As much bite as its bark!

This wine has a tremendous nose - rich, complex, enticing and just plain gorgeous! Notes of cola, anise and vanilla drift over a dominating blackberry component on the nose that carries to the first sip... the body is lighter than I expect, with a floral component contributing to the fruit that raises my eyebrows. The finish is a surprising blend of mint over dark roast coffee and dark fruits. A great conversation piece, pick up a few bottles and save them for special occasions with special friends.
