Garnet-infused rose color. Strawberry, spice, and earth nose. Medium bodied, raspberries, bright cherries, mature tannins, pepper, leather, good acid, and a medium to long cherry-filled finish. Fresh and delicious.

How complicated does a wine have to be in order to create enjoyment and interest? Here we have a convincing, textbook case of "not very." Light-medium ruby color with a bit of orange. Nice but simple nose of cloves and tart cherries, which opens to show floral undertones with about 2 hrs. of air. Light-bodied and juicy-tart on the palate with a touch of raspberry and mushroom in the flavor. Finishes quickly with a bit of grip and low tannins. This wine is very ingratiating, delicious, and juicy. It's not "serious" but it certainly is enjoyable, with or without the quote marks. It may be the best 87-point wine you will find this year.
