The Color: Dense, vibrant, and dark ruby red—a color that pulls you in like a starry night.
The Nose: Bold and nostalgic, this wine brings dark fruits mixed with the unmistakable scent of pencil shavings—think yellow #2 pencil, freshly sharpened in that old-school wall-mounted rotary sharpener. There’s also a refreshing hint of cedar, like a rain-soaked forest or a freshly split cedar log, bringing earthy depth to the aroma.
The Palate: Full-bodied and layered, with flavors of juicy black cherry that conjure up the cherry at the bottom of a perfectly made Old Fashioned—rich, sweet, and oh-so-satisfying. This is a wine with a thoughtful side, deep and contemplative, perfect for savoring when you’re in the mood to just sit back and reflect.
