It is savory and elegant, with bright strawberries, raspberry leaf, freshly turned soil, pine bough, and wild mint. The palate is gorgeously spiced with delicate flavors of clove, spiced orange peel, black tea, rich ripe strawberries, and wild herbs, showing energy, tension, depth, complexity, and fine tannins. Primary flavors include raspberry, cherry, cranberry, Cara Cara orange, strawberry, blue fruit, blackberry, and wild berry, with aroma notes of sassafras, green tea, spice, almonds, wet slate, black tea, horehound, forest floor, raspberry leaf, freshly turned soil, pine bough, wild mint, clove, orange peel, wild herbs, violet, lavender, citrus peel, chalk, minerality, and incense.
