Bourbon barrel aging imparts notes of caramel, nutmeg, black pepper, oak, and a mild smoky boozy char, along with the ripe berry flavor and herbaceous notes of green bell pepper. A smooth sailing red with bold blackberry fruit on the palate that finishes with lingering notes of leather and spice.
A truly sensuous mouthfeel, not velvet or suede as much as grainy – with melting dark chocolate cherries. With enough texture to alert the palate, dried roses and leafy tobacco create a perfect storm of flavor and nuance.
Intense and unforgiving, grabbing the tongue with licorice and underbrush. Suede textured tannins reveal dark chocolate and spiced cedar.
Sumptuous is the key word here, with roasted coffee bean, charcuterie, animale, and black cherry. Elegance enhanced, with a deep reserve of black pepper and walnut.
A beam of sunshine fills the glass. Tangerine and lime blossom are glorious notes, favored by toasty brioche and graham cracker. Mouth filling, opulent, and delicious.
Sage and dried herbs, black cherry and Worcestershire lead the way for this big, bold red. Vanilla beans and a touch of smoke create its inner depth, releasing walnut skin tannins, surrounding a finish of plum and licorice.
Deep, penetrating notes of espresso and mocha. Rich red fruit is powered by plush tannins. A generous wash of plum engages with an earthy finish.
Rich color brings forth bright red fruit on the nose: ripe strawberry, raspberry, red plum, a cherry scent bordering on cherry preserves. Also find vanilla, cinnamon, white pepper, and dried thyme. Cooked fruit/jamminess on the palate with a hint of licorice and wet stones lingering on the finish.
