97pts Decanter
Intrepid aromas of richly peppered blue and black fruit with a sheen of minty refreshment. Structured, polished and densely textured, with indulgent tannins and a penetrating bead of fine acidity. Built for the long haul.
93pts James Suckling
Pure, layered and delicious, the wine is balanced, charming and easy to sip, with moderate tannins. Nicely concentrated blackberries, blueberries and dark chocolate seem to deepen in the glass, filling the palate and lingering on the finish.
Winemaker Notes
Pronounced aromas of blueberry, plum and cassis are layered with earthy notes of leather and molasses. Rich and substantial on the palate, flavors of more blueberry, plum and cherry carry over to a long, toasty finish.
Try this wine with smoked meats, caramelized vegetables and slow-cooked foods, which will complement its rich, earthy nature.
