WE Wine Enthusiast: 92 Points
Dark violet-red in the glass, this wine has lively aromas of cherry, rose petal and fennel seed. A beautiful floral note permeates the palate alongside flavors of blackberry preserves, blueberry, milk chocolate and clove that are wrapped in a layer of velvety tannins.
JS James Suckling: 92 Points
The dark roasted spices and hints of cocoa powder are nicely woven to the deep aromas of dark cherries and dried plums. It is juicy and pretty sleek on a medium-bodied palate with creamy but present tannins and a long, bright finish.
WS Wine Spectator: 90 Points
Offers ripe, juicy boysenberry and red currant fruit meshed with a savory mix of grilled herbs and tobacco, tarry smoke and balsamico. Chewy and medium- to full-bodied, with refreshing orange peel acidity.
