Nice red color, soft red fruit and spice on the nose. Tastes of some red fruits, a touch of integrated wood, and some greenness. Good mouthfeel, enjoyable for what it is, tannins are soft without dryness. Ladybugs. |

This drinks like 1st/2nd growth bordeaux from a warm vintage, but for 25% of the cost! Dark fruit, ripe, tobacco, wet earth, dusty tannins, perfect balance. Drink over the next 3-5 years...AM
