  7/20/15, 4:51 PM - Thanks for the note. We sipped a bottle last month at home. Breathed in the bottle for 2+ hours before sipping. Dark purple cheery cherries and a bit of smoke and spice on the nose. Fresh, ripe red fruits and subtle, but sufficient, tannins. Medium-bodied, think opposite of Meghan Trainor - enough about the bass, mostly treble. Silky, elegant, fairly long finish. Great value wine!!!
