Violet color, inviting herbal aroma and flavors of spiced coffee, birria, marinated olives and peppers, and braised corn and sweet potato with a satiny, bright, dry-yet-fruity medium-full body and a warming, complex, long finish with nuances of artisan chocolate, spiced dried berries, toffee, and eucalyptus honey with fine tannins and moderate oak flavor.  A meaty, spicy and complex Napa Cabernet to savor.
