Nose
A captivating bouquet of blackberries, cassis, dark chocolate, leather, and hints of vanilla
Palate
Layers of blackcurrants, ripe plums, espresso, velvety tannins, and a long, lingering finish of exquisite richness.
Winemaking
Picked at night and processed into appropriately sized tanks, these lots were kept on skins for a range of 10-20 days in order to manage extraction appropriately. PV always receives the least maceration time due to its prolific tannins.
Aging
Aged in a mixture of 225L French oak barriques and 500L French oak puncheons for 20 months prior to bottling. 30% of the oak was new.
Appearance
Luxurious, inky-purple color
