I always want to score this wine higher than the quality because the winery is #hightech and beautiful. #newagesaintemilion #saintemilion deep color, black fruits (blackberries) and violet primary aromas, followed by oak aging secondary aromas of mocha, chocolate and cedar. High tannins, full bodied and instense flavors of sweet spices and black fruits.

2010 vintage is Delicious, drinks a little young but nice even velvet tannins and hints of plum and cherry flavors.
