Sweet dusty cherries. There was a ton of sediment. Seemed pretty broken down nearing the end of it drinkability.

1 person found it helpfulApr 30th, 2016Brambly and ripe, round soft and a fruit forward wine. Hugely fruited and deeply flavored, this is a wine that is very different from the other wines in the entire portfolio. The wine is as smooth as silk, but lacks to me some energy, finesse and structure that I prefer.

Was expecting a much heavier wine, but this was more elegant on the palate. Don't get me wrong, there is plenty of concentration, lots of fruit and well integrated oak. Modern for sure, but with focus. Vivid black cherry, blackberry, mocha, plum and tobacco rise easily from the glass and fan out on the palate. Medium+ tannin and body. The finish is fine but long.
