  What a nice wine... served with spaghetti last night. At first we thought it might not matchup well; however, as it opened up, wow! Garnet in color, fresh smells of spring rain in a forest, barnyard, toast, and a cornucopia of tastes of blueberry, blackberry, strawberry with slight hints of nutmeg and chocolate. This is a near-full bodied wine that even novice wine drinkers would appreciate. Polished tannins, good acidity, producing very happy saliva with a very long finish. I can imagine it will be even better with a year or two more bottle age.

  Poured & tasted over 3 hrs. Ripe fruit and lavendar nose. Sweet red and blue berries on the thick, silky palate. Sweet, but balanced - not jammy. Notes of rose petals, perfume, and twigs fill the nose on the finish. Soft tannins become unusually more prominent after a couple of hours. Delicious & interesting.

  - Garnet color - Not impressed by this wine. A decent body but slightly sweet tasting, which I don't like in a red wine and at US$280 a bottle not worth the price tag. Will not buy again.
