Dense and layered with tons of black fruit, blueberry cobbler, creme de cassis, spice, toasted oak and even some hints of fresh floral on the tail end providing some freshness. Very expressive and modern in style with a full luscious body. Well structured and focused with plenty of depth and power. The finish is long and supple with black and blue fruits lingering.
