Date: Saturday, November 30, 2019"This medium- to full-bodied red has a round, burly quality to the tannins, which are well-meshed overall, providing a chewy frame for flavors of dried strawberry and cranberry fruit, violet and ground anise. Offers a fresh, mineral-laced finish. Drink now through 2026. 1,250 cases made, 300 cases imported."
