This wine starts out reminiscent of baked cherry pie fresh out of grandma’s oven.  Immense blue fruit urges you to jump in only to realize that you are consumed with a mysterious smoky, spicy, fruit character indicative of those maraschino cherries bartenders use to garnish a cocktail.  Filled with peppered jerky this wine coats your palate but leaves you not with haste but rather hangs out with a long lasting chalky, sweet vanilla that never seems to dissipate.
