Juicy red fruit dominates this wine - strawberry, red cherry, raspberry, red currant and then blackberry and black cherry. The problem is a lack of intensity of flavor and aroma. Lowish tannin and high alcohol throw it out of balance against the mild fruit. It’s pleasant but lacks the impact one expects from this high profile appellation.
