Rooty aromas of tree bark, cola, tobacco and sweet briar set up a plump, tannic palate with roasted, sweet flavors of Mission fig, dark berry and spice. It’s easygoing and loamy on the finish, with chewy tannins and not too much bite.

Scratchy, generic red berry aromas are the opening. The palate runs narrow and tight, with clacky red berry flavors followed by a sugary sweetness. Candied and sweet on the finish before mild bitterness sets in.

Basic tropical aromas feature a touch of citrus. The palate is melony and chunky, with tropical fruit flavors and sweet melon. Turns pithy and bitter on the finish. Soft and rapidly losing steam.

A touch green and horsey smelling, with tomato and leafy berry aromas. Feels heavy and bullish, with a beam of acid pushing plum flavors that end in a short, simple finish.
