The 2007 Briarcrest combines complex structure with elegant fruit and stellar
varietal appeal, making it as much a cellar selection as a natural fit for today’s table.
Inky ruby red in color, on the nose it shows complex aromas of cassis, blackberry
essence, licorice and perfumed hints of lavender, with notes of cedar and brown
spice. On the palate, the wine delivers complex yet elegant black fruit flavors and
big, chewy tannins before a lengthy finish, wrapping it all up with velvety notes
of dark chocolate, cigar box and espresso.
