92 Points James Suckling
A full-bodied, flavorful and generous red that feels nicely taut in texture and moderately tannic. Black cherries, blackberries and hints of savory bay leaves and black pepper without obvious oak flavors. Good concentration and depth. Drink now.
 
Winemaker Notes
Rich in color and flavor, right out of the gate. This wine presents a deeply saturated, garnet hue in the glass, with aromas of cassis and cigar box, and notes of dried cherries on the nose. A balanced, velvety palate showcases Ripe Satsuma plum on the entry and finishes with Bing cherry and dusty dutch cocoa. Natural acidity lends a youthful brightness enhancing it’s drink now appeal, while simultaneously structuring the wine for graceful age-ability.
