Massena Vineyards The Howling Dog - 2016 (750ml)

Black as night and laden with an abundance of natural structure and personality, the palate surprises with immense flavor but with all elements in balance. Aromas of beetroot, tilled earth and juniper, the palate has an inky, iodine like deepness with elements of roasted coriander and cumin and a structure that is evident, but intriguingly supple. Built more along the lines of a marathon runner than a sprinter, it is approachable but will greatly reward those who choose to keep a few bottles well into the future. - massena.com
