Intense, with a concentration and complexity integral to Pritchard Hill this dark and incredibly saturated color previews the intense aromas of baked blackberry, dark cherry, crème de cassis, plum and anise that are to come. Layered, rich and sophisticated, with notes of espresso, dark chocolate and toasted oak, it supports beautiful ripe fruit and spice flavors, with seamless, mouthcoating tannins that add power and longevity. Despite its epic nature, there is also a liveliness and radiance to this wine that gives it poise, precision and balance. Hard to put down.
