Wine Enthusiast: Intense and rich wine, with touches of smoky wood, the tannins ripe, the acidity a refreshing balancing factor. With its cherry character, there is fruit already, but wait a y...

Mike Supple: Bright ruby core with a salmon rim. Strawberry and raspberry aromas are supported by a rich clay minerality and a light rose petal lift. Nice ripe raspberry fruit on the entry...
