Aromas of blackberry and cassis fruit, baking spices, and violets spring from the glass. The palate is full bodied with layers of ripe plums, tar, licorice and the classic Hershey minerality. The wine is dense and structured as you would expect from Howell Mountain. The finish lingers with dark chocolate, savory herbs. This wine will grow in complexity as it ages.
