Rose petal in the nose, nice aromatics. Big Cherry component, touch of spice on back palate. . Velvety smooth on finish! Impressive! CB 94

Dark cherry and plum in the nose. Similar flavors on the palate with spice and oak/cedar characteristics. There's a certain bitterness in the syrupy flavor near the end and the aftertaste is reminiscent of the aftertaste of apricot nectar. Got better after an hour of air. Will be curious about tomorrow's results.

Raspberry, cherry, spice, subtle flower petals and balanced acidity. I enjoyed!

Spectator gave this beautiful wine a 94. With a striking ruby color wine is full bodied with a top note of red berry fruit. Drinking beautifully in 2016.

Big wine loaded with dark red cherries, flowers and spices on the nose. Big dark fruits taste and just lush.
