Squid ink dark in the glass. The bouquet erupts with cherry kirsch and huckleberry framed with sarsaparilla and brown sugar with nuances of charred oak, clove and leather. The wine is full-bodied on entry with dark, luscious lush fruit splaying out over chewy-yet-silky tannins and a long, lingering cocoa and roasted coffee-infused finish. Big-and-brawny yet never overbearing, this is precision winemaking at its best. Booyah.

Drink today or hold a few more years

"Though I had not originally bought this selection from de Négoce (my bad), I got to try it with a group tasting of dN wines. A quick bouquet of fruit flavors with a glass of impenetrable display of dense dark purple. What a treat tasting such a quality 100% PS which has matured well in only four years of aging in bottle. Drink today or hold for yet another few years."
