Clean aromas of cassis, lilac and tar make for a rich nose on this bottling, yet it retains freshness. The texture is both creamy and firm on the palate, where the full-bodied fruit flavors pick up spice into the finish.

The 2021 High on the Hog is wickedly fresh and floral with bright cherry-berry fruit offset by cedary spice. This is velvety smooth with juicy acidity and ripe black fruits offset by sour citrus. It finishes spicy and fresh, leaving the mouth watering for more as violet pastille notes linger.
