Definite favorite of the line. Burnt caramel and vanilla on the nose, smells sweet. The palate reveals toasted bourbon flavors along with berry acidity and a spicy, smoky finish. Again, overt and obvious wine, but well made, distinctive and complex.

Bought for Coq au vin, took a sip and was surprised by how much I enjoyed. Especially for a piano noir.
