Dark garnet, subtly perfumed nose of sweet boysenberry (if that's not redundant), ripe gummy red fruit, cassis and menthol, very suave and sweet in the mouth but not pushy, mocha, earth and hints of tar, finishes much longer than expected, beautiful wine
On a side note, I have to say I'm a big advocate of buying wine at the winery and this wine is a perfect example. The wine just taste fresher. It's worth the extra couple bucks. Over ten years of collecting and drinking wine I've never had a flawed bottle when bought at the winery. I just wished I lived in France.

Deep plum color, rich boysenberry nose, full mixture of fruit on the palate but not sweet. Highly recomended.
