  • Complete description

    Vintage Description:

    A delicious effort with pretty floral notes of dried rose potpourri and church incense. The bouquet starts with highly perfumed aromas and steadily moves toward fruit, tar, spice, and root beer as the wine evolves. It hits all the right marks in terms of intensity and persistency: This is a bold wine that never goes over-the-top.
