February 21, 2014 - Based on our previous experience with this wine, we used this one as a desert wine. It was perfect when served with chocolate Grenache. I tasted a small glass with dinner and it was too sweet though.
As a general wine, I would say an 80. As a desert wine, 90. -

October 10, 2012 - We liked this wine at the winery but at home it seems a bit too fruity for our tastes. We will give our second bottle some time and see if it improves in a year or so.
