Tried a glass of this at my local bar. The "earth" is most obvious at first sip. Then just ripe red fruits as you continue. Very good!

Very good wine, a lot of body. Excellent finish. Not a fan of the winery so much as the wine. Enjoying it in NY this evening. I'm holding back, one of my favorite wines at this price.

Ruby red in color, nice cherry notes, low to medium tannins and acidity. Not spectacular but I did really enjoy it for an everyday drinking wine. Would buy again

Had this wine at Marino's Italian Cafe, a lovely little restaurant with amazing food. This paired well with the Italian entrees.
