Medium ruby, with a lovely nose of cake spice, raspberries and musk. Unusually balanced, with a long lifted finish, not at all hot (14%). Perfect for near term consumption, but not a wine to cellar for more than a year or two.

P: Med body; Almost swtish frt met by an astringent pucker which somewhat works itself out by the long, tangy/swt finish. NEEDS 18-30 mos, but SHOULD have the frt for that. Tasted @ $24.99. [As of early May '20, wine-searcher still shows 1 source @ $24].
