The essence of fun forward drinking CdP. Nice ruby color with a nose of raspberry liquor, licorice, and herbs. The palate is fruit forward not overly complex but it delivers the flavors on a tight beam. Yummy now and for the next 5 years.

This CdP is done a very elegant, drink now (or within 5 years) fashion. It isn't necessarily fruit forward but it doesn't have the power, concentration or structure that many other wines from this vintage have. It gives a strong floral aroma with hints of red fruit. It gives of raspberry and red cherry followed by a mid-palate with more dark fruit flavor and a silky smooth mouth-feel throughout.

Ready to drink and already showing its black, red and white cherries, pepper, earth and thyme infused, round, lusty profile.

Too much alc. 14.5?? I suppose it was a decently made wine, but no more for me.
