86 Points

Sunday, May 3, 2009 - 13.3% alcohol. This ruby-red wine sports a red cherry nose tinged with earth and sandlewood. On the palate, red fruits such as cherry and tart cranberry glide across the tongue with a subtle, earthy undercurrent. Structurally, this is light-bodied with refreshing acidity, but it does come across as feminine and lacking some mid-palate depth. There are some tannins lurking below the surface, so additional aging may be beneficial. The red-fruited finish is moderate but enjoyable. Overall, this is a decent village wine that will have some more time, but it will not transcend its classification.
