Calafia Charbono 2022

Notes from the Winemaker: The color is a deep crimson red with an indigo hue. The wine opens with a brooding black fruit profile of cassis, licorice, and baker’s chocolate. The flavors are similar with hints of damp earth, wet forest floor, blackberries, exotic spices with French oak. The mouthfeel is elegant, rich, and silky which is unusual for Charbono which usually has chewy, sometimes drying tannins. The finish is very long with fine grain tannins for long term aging.
