Barbe Rac 2016

Glistening magenta. Deeply perfumed aromas of ripe red berries. cherry cola. candied flowers and garrigue take on a spicy element with aeration. Juicy and densely packed. offering alluringly sweet black raspberry. cherry pie. licorice pastille and lavender flavors and a late hint of spicy white pepper. The floral and spice notes carry strongly through an impressively long. penetrating finish framed by chewy. slow-building tannins. I suspect this wine will reward plenty of patience. Raised entirely in concrete vats.
