Drank 4/14/17. Decent pairing with chicken sausage and lentils.

Big nose of raspberry bramble, cherry, underbrush, and Blackberry liquer. Red fruits on the palate, with herbs, spice, and cherry. Medium to firm tannins on the finish, dominated by red fruit. A touch hot. I beleive WA went like 96 pts on that. Can't quite get there, but a nice wine for the price (roughly $27).

4/22/8/3/4 + 50 = 91 Pts.
