Clear deep garnet. Forward and interesting nose recalls warm raisin bran muffins or perhaps date squares, also hints of candied cherries and maple syrup. On the palate, full-bodied with ripe blackberry fruit over vanilla and caramel base notes. An in-your-face Californian with high alcohol and acidity. Needed its age, tannins are still firm but mature and drinking well now.
