Bio

I'm a 35 year old married woman with one daughter that is 5. I love to go for a run, do yoga, drink wine, eat dark chocolate, and take long hot bubble baths while reading a good book.

very dark and smooth, cranberry on nose and palate, thick, need to decant, strong flavor, would stand up well to strong foods. Dry and spicy with a hint of cherry.
