A very pleasant surprise after reading the WS review. Fragrant nose, with rose petals, dark fruit, and a hint of asphalt; lush dark fruit flavors, some earth, and a little leather, carrying well through the midpalate; decent tannins, and a long finish, ending in black cherries and weeds. Tasting blind, I would have guessed a Washington red, which is a good thing if you like that style (I do).

Slightly brownish color. Brown sugar & leathery red berry aromas. Clean, leathery red berry fruit with a big dose of acidity. May need time to settle the acidity but the color scares me.
