My favorite out of all of MV's wines. Like The Who's Quadrophenia, it's the perfect balance of world-class song writing and simple rock n roll. Ruby garnet with aromas of black licorice, black current, cherry cola, vanilla and toffee. Refined, feminine elegance dancing around in the smooth mouthfeel, while still being full bodied with a burly and masculine richness. An assortment of cherries are on the palate, along with plums, driftwood and caraway. Finishes with a little visit from the tannin, but not overwhelming, and a higher acidity than you would expect.

Complex flavors of black cherry , dark chocolate truffle, tobacco, and earthy notes. Rich on the palate, lingering finish with velvety tannins. This will grow deeper as it ages.

This 2008 is like drinking seductive poetry! Grapes sourced from the Red Mountain AVA. Lots of sediment to filter out and aeration opens it up. My goodness this is smooth.
