Blind Assessment

Deeply sweet, lush and quietly complex. Black cherry, pineapple, star jasmine, chocolate fudge and cashew butter in aroma and cup. Juicy, gently wine-like acidity; full, velvety-smooth mouthfeel. The finish is long and resonant, led by ripe fruit and chocolate with a delicate floral throughline.
