Light color and body for a can. On the nose, cherry, anise and herbs. On the palate, quite light. Red berries at first and medium finish of slight tobacco and cinnamon. Free gift from Ritz Carlton. Thank you! — 2 months ago

For the 2014 vintage, I echo my comments for the 2013 vintage. Thanks to Elizabeth for her vote of confidence in her review of the 2012. — 4 months ago

Deep Ruby coloration. On the nose, dark berry, cherry and anise. On the palate, full body, smooth and silky mouth feel. Cassis, dark cherry, and dark berry, high tannin. Jammy before the tannins rip in. Will be even better with in a few years. — 7 months ago

2010 vintage. On the nose, strong cherry, red berries, currant and anise with oak and vanilla. On the palate, considerably lower tannins than the 2014 I had recently. Silky smooth mouthfeel, but not as rich and textured as expected. Initial hints of oak, vanilla, pepper, cherry, red berry, and Extremely long finish of cherry and vanilla. — 3 months ago

Cranberry coloration. On the nose, dark cherry, tobacco and florals. On the palate, very light, cherry and vanilla are present. Not my favorite. Not much depth of flavor and too light for my preference. Tastes watered down. — 7 months ago
