88 Points

Monday, September 12, 2016 - Lovely nose of berries and vanilla leads to a rich wallop on the palate with some prune flavors added in - but not much complexity or persistence culminating in a short unsatisfactory finish

For the record, there is not much perceptible heat from the 14.9% alcohol

Overall, this comes across as a touch too ripe and uninteresting for a nearly $300 wine retail

An easy drinking, not particularly complex or long, fruit forward red that might be a good accompaniment to a juicy burger that you are grilling should just plain not cost that much

Definitely not one for idle quaffing and contemplation
