This rooty smelling wine delivers herb, cola and cassis aromas in front of a wiry feeling palate that’s loaded to the brim with hard-biting tannins. Flavors of mossy, baked berry fruits come with an herbal streak, and the finish is hard due to those grating tannins. For a five-year-old wine to feel this hard is telling.
