A long layered finish cloaked in purity and elegance. 125 cases produced. | Brilliant Mistake ...It bursts from the glass with bombastic scents of creme de cassis, blueberry pie, black forest cake and mocha with hints of star anise, rose oil and woodsmoke plus a touch of lavender. Full-bodied, decadent fruited and super concentrated in the mouth, it features a lively backbone cutting through the dense black fruit layers with a velvety texture, leading to a beautiful floral lift on the long finish. | 97 points, Robert Parker's Wine Advocate
