Last bottle I have of this and time has helped it. A streak of crunchy cherry, some sweet/savory gravel, and a whiff of tomato leaf on the nose. Intense cherry, mineral, and a bit of spice in the mouth. Tannin barely there. Crisp acids (12.9%). Very nice with coq au vin.

Since this is called sleeper, I thought it would be appropriate to include one of the all- time great sleepers- my lab Kelsey- in the pic. Soft, light with a kind is sweet- sour candy thing goin'on. Good sipper for summer.

Sour cherry, raspberry, blood orange, med - body, med + acid, fine drying tannin. Copain on the back label... This is nice for the price and I could see it improving.
