This wine is medium dark in color. The nose is rather faint, but has a nice scent of cherries and flowers. The palate explodes with a peppery shower of red fruit and some savory drapery that has an earthy, eucalyptus note to it. The flavors exhibited here are exceptional, and somewhat out of the ordinary. Pair it with a meaty pasta dish, or use it in making the meaty pasta dish.

Overly extracted & uni dimensional in its sweetness, an annoying artificial raspberry flavor. Gave it a chance on day 2 but just more of the same. Proof positive that “organic grapes”does not=good wine. I suspect too the problem lies not in the vineyard but in a driving sensibility to make money from a “modern” style. The only raspberry this wine earns is the (raspberry) sound I’m making now...
