Winemaker Notes:
Deep hue in the glass portends and exotic complex aroma profile in this young wine.  Heady blend of spiced plums, black raspberry syrup, vanilla bean and a hint of caramel on the nose lead to similar flavors on the palate, enhanced by a silky texture and fresh fruit essences that lingers, along with the faintest hint of toasty French oak.
