Rob Murray Vineyards Force of Nature Red Blend 2019
Brooding purple with dark rimmed color. The nose blooms first with red cherry, ripe plum to dark raspberry with hints of anise seed and ending dusty suede. The palate is explosive, lush ripe fruits give way to supple tannin, layers of dark and bright berries with balanced acidty and firm yet restrained structure. The strong finish lingers of black tea and plum.
