Holy Wow-ness! Big, ripe, juicy bottle of liquid magic! Perfectly balanced between dark, lush, ripe fruit with soft mouthfeel and mildly dry tannins. We find ourselves nearly finished with this bottle before it's even begun. Thankfully we have another.

Big deep cherry flavor up front. A little oaky dryness at the finish - but not so much as to characterize this as a dry wine. A very pleasant wine that makes for easy drinking without the need to decant.

What a hit! Paired this will grilled burgers. Subtle and nuanced in its flavors - well balanced. Too bad it's not in our everyday table wine price range.
