Correct bouquet, with blackcurrant and pepper garden prominent. Juicy and lively, while also pleasantly restrained. It seemed some tannin has been removed, which detracts from the whole. Nevertheless, not lacking for appeal. 91-92.

Nice nose - spices with slight pepper & fruit Light ruby core in the glass On the fruity side but nice for Texas heat Nice fruit finish with medium tannins Cuvee style that can be used for heavy o'dourves and not over power the food

Color: Medium Purple Nose: Dark Berry Taste: Heavy Fruit and Low Oak Feel; Blackberry and Bright Acidity in the Mid-Palate; Wonderful Spice and Polished Finish Comp's: Great Oak Knoll District Region Value and Starting Value for Corley/Monticello Wines; Pair with Lamb Chops; Similar to Mellowness of Unanime on the Finish, but More Napa Fruit-Forward
