Wineries flagship wine! Strong in body, powerful in structure, with notes of ripe red fruits, blood orange, pomegranate, and camphor. A bit candied on the nose, but elegant on the palate with ripe cherry and tannin. Tons of spices, dry flowers/red petals, dry hibiscus, pomegranate and leather. Nice grippy finish.
