Everything La Spinetta does= HR nothing fancy on this one but, solid solid juice. The cherries have been rolled in dirt just like I like them.

Aug 21st, 2013Dark ruby color with a slight brick rim. Aromas of cherry, bramble berries, leather, orange zest and dusty earth. Flavors of black cherry/berry/raspberry/plum fruit, blueberries, tobacco and savory spices. Intense earthy quality on the long finish. Mouth watering acidity and very silky tannins. Medium-plus body. A bit of heft and intensity. Solid weeknight option.
