Brick red with a scent of sweet spices, black
plums and a touch of rose petal. Palate showed fennel seeds, white pepper and
dried rosemary mixed with plum and cherries. Silky tannins, yet firm with
balanced acidity and excellent length. Ideal with game and matured cheeses.
“Sweet berry and plum, with a hint o f oak barrels on the nose
. Full-bodied, round and velvety, with lots o f new wood and ripe fruit. Chewy.
A powerful version. Best from 2010 through 2014.” – 90 points by Wine Spectator
