The nose of our 2017 "The Point" opens with layers of dense and ripe bramble fruit and progresses into notes of rich blackberry cobbler. As the nose continues to develop, further notes of graphite, black pepper, and olive leaf are framed by dark mocha and vanilla notes. The palate is dense and chewy with layers of velvety tannins, and carries a decadent juiciness which is supported by a firmly textured backbone. The finish is long and supple, and ends with a sensation of mouth coating cocoa powder.
