This wine has a medium-dark ruby color. The first thing I notice is the oak. It seems very oaky, despite only six months in wood. The nose offers a smokey note, which I always like to find. There are aromas of ripe cherries, berries and plums. Those fruits also appear on the palate, where oak again dominates. The tannins are firm, but not overpowering. The mouthfeel is rich and full. I had mine with a brisket sandwich and it paired very well.

I really enjoyed this. Smooth with a hint of fruity and not too heavy.

Great wine with us cooking out on a nice fall evening. Good nose. Hints of smoke and dark berries.
