Despite 60% new oak, the first thing you notice about this wine is its gorgeously pure black-cherry fruit. Sure, there's a hint of toast and cedar, but the size and weight comes from ripe fruit and skilled winemaking, not cooperage. Low acidity and soft tannins make this easy to drink now but it should easily last 5–7 years.
