The wine had a nice dark garnet color. It presented a pleasing aroma of red fruit, with some hints of vanilla. Cherry and raspberry dominated the taste and carried over to a pleasing medium long aftertaste. The wine lasted us two nights and was even better on the second. It was an excellent choice to accompany the lamb.

Aged nicely. Drank with appetizers before dinner. Nice expression of Central Virginia red blends.

Served with braised lamb shanks. Still shows complexity.
