Bravante Vineyards 2017 Red Blend Trio

On the nose, aromas of ripe blackberries, poached plums, dried thyme, cloves, cocoa and grilled herbs enliven the senses. The palate is full-bodied with firm, fine-grained tannins and a dash of fresh acidity, all in balanced with succulent, concentrated, savory dark fruit flavors.
