The 2018 Olson Vineyard Old Vine Reserve has a sweet, rich, forward, complex aroma of boysenberries and blackberries, getting richer and more intense with each inhalation, framed with dark floral notes and oak spices, and red cherries (late in the game), embracing the complex fragrance.
The flavors are intense, sweet, bright and fresh, with rich red and dark cherries followed by darker berries, framed by rich, velvety tannins, oak-spices and earthy complexity.
The texture is rich and thick, with elegant, sweet-velvety tannins.
The finish is very long, rich and sustained, with red and dark berry flavors intermingling with the oak notes and the lightly spicy tannins.This wine benefit from cellaring but can be enjoyed anytime without decanting.
