Tasted 04-09 in the Sierras. Aromatic nose of plush sweet red fruits including ripe cherry, plum & berry; sweet vanilla oak; spice. Palate is dramatically less interesting, in fact disappointing. Primarily pepper & spice, not much fruit, hollow in the mid palate, simple. Adequate but would not buy. Except for the aromas, is lacking in personality-- no "there" there.
