| Notes | "Rich, ripe and juicy, boasting cherry, raspberry, floral, spice and mineral aromas and flavors. Balanced, with fine length and a mineral aftertaste. Drink now through 2024. 300 cases imported." (Wine Spectator) "Good deep red. Complex, ripe aromas of redcurrant, dark raspberry and musky coffee. Fat and sweet but a bit youthfully reduced, with dark fruit and licorice flavors showing an almost chocolatey ripeness. Finishes sweet and persistent, with smooth tannins." (Stephen Tanzer, Vinous) | |||
Additional Notes "Expressive nose developing red berry notes. Tender and delicate, with an elegant structure, this is a wine with great charm. Good ageing potential." (Winery Notes) |
