Cherries and pepper on the nose, and on first taste. Wild oak and chocolate comes in at middle just behind sour cherry and plums, then lingers through finish. Tannins pretty nicely it. Acidity slightly harsh.r — 8 years ago

9.3

Concentrated fruit with that amarone raisin flavor peaking through. Also a european herby/leafy thing going on makes it a nice switch from similarly juicy american wine. Held up ok to beef tenderloin — 8 years ago

Very very smooth $18 rioja. Dark cherry and unsweetened chocolate, with a sort of rocky backbone, with oak really nicely blended in. Some pepper and anise on finish, like dried leaves. Maraschino cherries on the nose. Medium to light body — 8 years ago

Fruity, sour cherry and blackberry, but underneath harsh tannins. Better on 2nd day. Could be good value table wine in a few years maybe? — 8 years ago

Berries and cedar and alcohol on the nose. Very tart berry flavor on taste, oak worked in really nicely. Smooth and deep, but tartness is almost too much. — 8 years ago

Dried cranberries an excellent tasting note. Some darker fruit flavors there too, but acidity makes it feel lighter. Did not pair well with lasagna :( — 8 years ago
