Tasting Notes
The addition of full appassimento in the blend makes this the fullest Big Red so far. The nose is ripe, confectionary, and spicy. Black and red berries in strawberry Jell-O, cardamom, vanilla and hot cinnamon spill out of the glass. The palate is dry, but with a pleasant ripeness layered with buttery caramel tones from the oak that will stay with you. The addition of the Syrah adds a savory touch to the finish.
