A generously lifted nose featuring black cherries, savory meats, kitchen spices and subtle charry oak notes. The palate offers a richly textured yet surprisingly cultivated mouthfeel. The dark fruits, cherries and spices carry over from the nose superbly and combines expressively with the quality French oak and natural wine tannins. Crafted in a style that is delicious now but will also reward further cellaring.

92 pts - WineSpectator.com :“Not for the faint of heart. Dense and intense, with chewy tannins and plenty of Earl Grey tea notes to complement the wild blackberry core. The tannins become chewy on the finish but don’t get in the way of the wine’s focus.”
91 pts - Wine Enthusiast : “Made in a savory, ageworthy style, the 2013 Covenant features aromas of tar, espresso and black olive. It adds intriguing red-berry notes on the full-bodied palate, along with dusty tannins that persist through the long finish.”
