Not disappointed, but less impressed than I wanted to be. Supple purple fruit, floral & feminine, structurally sound, likeable.

Juicy and packed with dark black and blue fruit. Nicely integrated oak character and spice and it purrs like a Cheshire Cat.

Pulling the rabbit out of the hat with this one. This big, yet balanced blend delivers. The queen of hearts foul-temper will be calmed with this wine. Blackberry, black licorice, stone, and dark roast coffee.
