Soft edges red fruit elegant notes of raspberry. Chocolate mouse elegance incredibly well integrated with a perfect balance of earth and fruit. Dollar for dollar this is a "no brainier"!!

Wow. Intensely aromatic. Barbecue spices, hickory smoke, eucalyptus, blackberries, molasses, tar, wet earth, pencil shavings, and crushed rocks leap from the glass. Medium weight on the palate. A wall of juicy black fruit; intensely extracted and built on a solid frame. Balanced with nice acidity. Light on its feet. Finishes with spice, leather, and graphite.

A wonderful value wine. The nose is leathery dark fruits. The finish is smooth and quite long. It is like melted milk chocolate. Very nice wine and a fine brother to the butcher -- the 2009 is a beautiful wine

Fruit forward, smooth tannins, velvety mouthfeel, not overly complex. Paired beautifully with prime T-bone steak. High ABV relatively unnoticeable.
