On the nose this blend has a profusion of violets and cassis with hints of cedar and leather adding to it. Bright and elegant on the palate, there is a succession of currants and raspberry fruit accented with toasty cedar overtones. Well integrated and balanced the flavors last well into the very long finish, supported by round tannins. This wine is very enjoyable now but also will show rewards from aging. A great pairing with heartier foods, grilled entrees, aged and ripe cheeses.
