Winemaker's Notes:

 The color is a bright garnet with ruby tint clarity and brilliance. On the nose is cherry, floral notes, plum, and light spice. On the palate is sweet cherry, hints of caramel, hints of blue fruit, and pepper spice. There is an elegant entry, smooth tannins on finish, and it is nicely structured with good acidity.
