REALLY delicious nose. trace of butter. This had to undergo malo. med- satiny tannins. med- body. Great flavor on the palate. Polished.
wltvf:"Medium ruby in the glass, this wine has a mouthwatering and complex nose of browned banana, ripe cherry pie filling, and traces of vanilla and butter (saw a touch of oak and malo). In the mouth it is light-bodied, perfectly balanced, with focused flavors and satiny tannins on a wonderfully polished finish. (a Rosenthal Selection)"
