Fragrant aromas and flavors of fig cake, warm cherry, baking spices, sweet tobacco, smoke and loamy earth are finely detailed and expressive as they expand beautifully on the creamy palate, wrapped around a supple frame of sculpted tannins. The rich profile is buoyed and balanced nicely by balsamico-laced acidity and the subtle tang of sanguine iron and saline accents. Long and spiced on the harmonious finish, this brings you back again and again for another sip with the sense that there are still many secrets to reveal. Tinto Fino and Cabernet Sauvignon. A blend of the 2011, 2012 and 2014 vintages. Drink now through 2046.
