  Outstanding bottle of wine! If you can get your hands on wine grab it because it's drinking beautifully. Nose is showing tons of dried red fruit from cherry, strawberry to wild bramble fruit along with tilled soil. Acid is intense and well balanced. Tannins are refined but showing nice gripiness. More wonderful dried red fruit and baking spices on the palate with a long finish. Great price performer. Not likely to get much better, but it probably won't decline much at all over the next few more years.

  Plenty of fruit on the nose and palette, well integrated tannins but a little to thin. Easy to drink summer day wine

  Rather light, little to add to my last comment.

  Dark red color. Medicinal cherry aromas. Earthy cherry flavors with an oaky finish and a little acidity. Minimal fruit but decent with pizza.

  The score may not indicate that this is a pretty quaffable wine but it is though not outstanding, pretty reasonable. A little low on fruit but low acidity and not many tannins.
