Appealing nose of fresh sweet boysenberry and black plum with hints of spice (clove?) and violet. Fresh, light black fruit on the palate with good balance. Slightly light and slightly short, but refreshing and appealing. Great lunch/BBQ wine in all of the best ways. 89+

Full bodied, nutty, stone fruit, not as much acidity as you'd think, but still good food wine, especially for the $. Great entry level example of Marsanne.
