The nose lept from glass with tart black currant, plums, and black cherries. On the palate, this wine was bursting with acidity with some moderate tannins for structure, but they quickly released and yielded to soft silky fruits. This wine is fruit forward with secondary notes of cocoa nibs and black olive. 14.5% alcohol came through a touch to much at times. I thought this was a nice bottle of wine and I’d drink it again anytime!

Golden color with green edges. Notes of apple, pear, apricot, and slate on the nose. On the palate this wine is fresh and bright with balanced acidity. Flavors of pear and white peach, with some minerality. Very nice and drinkable.

Soft, silky texture. Red fruit forward and subtle spice. This wine was elegant and showed very nicely.
