March 1, 2012 - This wine’s aroma is surprisingly interesting, perfumed with red rose petal, dark chocolate covered cherries, and cigar wrapper. A spin in the glass opens up a subtle earthiness as well hinting of vineyard dust, barn tones, and a lightly herbal quality.
Lots of bright, red fruit-like acidity introduces the palate. Cherries and red currants show at the core, with cacao powder, suede, and dried rose petals emerging on the edges. Very clean, precise, and dusty with firm tannins this is a nicely balanced wine that brings a surprising amount of quality for the price.
