Review: |
"(raised for two years in used American oak barrels) Lurid ruby. A highly perfumed bouquet displays an array of ripe red fruits and pungent flowers, along with spice, vanilla and pipe tobacco accents that emerge with aeration. Juicy and appealingly sweet, offering sappy, spice-tinged raspberry and cherry-vanilla flavors and subtle licorice and mocha nuances. Finishes supple, sweet and very long, with slow-building tannins that meld smoothly with the wine's intense fruit." |
