Lively with bright acidity, aromas of supple red cherries and mocha, with a hint of maple syrup, waft from the glass. On the palate this vintage mirrors the nose, showing flavors of pronounced red cherry, strawberry and hints of rhubarb. Well balanced, mid-palate the wine expresses a roundness filled with Crème Brule and finishes smooth with notes of dark chocolate and creamy caramel.
