"Deep ruby. Sexy aromas of black raspberry, violet, olive and black pepper, plus a subtle smoky quality. Sweet, open-knit red and dark berry flavors are complicated by notes of baking spices and a hint of candied flowers. Gains weight with air and finishes with very good mineral cut and lingering, seductive florality." Josh Raynolds, Vinous.com, Jan 2010 |
