"Deep garnet purple in color, it boldly leaps from the glass with notes of crème de cassis, blueberry pie, and baking spice aromas with a hint of chocolate box and potpourri. Full, rich, and opulent, it has a velvety texture and tons of spicy fruit on the tip of the tongue, with a fruity finish. (Wine Advocate 2018 - Lisa Perrotti-Brown)
