Open, expressive nose has aromas of dark cherries, cocoa, toast, spices and a slight earthy note. Well balanced on the palate with medium rich fruit buoyed by bright acidity. Finish is medium length and full of dark cherry and spice flavor. Very well done.
Simply rockin'. Wide open, effusive nose with floral, mocha, red fruit, tar and mineral notes. Palate is sexy with rich, layered fruit. Long, chewy and flavor finish goes on and on. Excellent!

Delicious, complex and elegant aromas leap from the glass. Pure / focused black fruit, meat, olives, spice, tar and toast. Palate is full bodied with loads of rich fruit and plenty of juicy acidity providing balance. Long, structured and full-flavored finish. Wow.

Open nose has floral and lanolin aromas. Straightforward on the palate with white flowers and white fruits. Medium finish. Solid.
