Notes | "Plum and blackberry flavors weave together with dark chocolate, black olive and herbal elements in this open-knit red. Spice notes add detail to the moderate, mineral-tinged finish. Drink now through 2020." (Wine Spectator) "This is lovely, adding freshness and a livelier feel to some of the other entry-level wines from Global Wines. It is a bit delicate, perhaps not as concentrated and as sappy, but its fresh demeanor and lifted fruit will make it a pleasure to drink now and over the next couple of years. It's a terrific value in a somewhat different style." (Wine Advocate) | |||
Additional Notes "This ripe and textured wine has tannins as well as bold red fruits. The wood aging shows in the spice and vanilla flavors that give the wine its firm richness. Drink now." (Wine Enthusiast) |
