The wine
Record
Black cherry and plum make the opening familiar, with brown sugar and faint smoke behind them. The berry fruit stays rounded through the middle; soft tannins and a tart cherry edge keep it from reading as flat. It closes lightly drying, with a grape-skin character that gives the last sip more definition than the start.
