...Dark red with ruby tones. Pungent aromas of cassis, blueberry, prosciutto, licorice, menthol, mint and minerals. Juicy and intense, conveying an exhilarating combination of sweetness and lively acidity to its red and darker berry and spice flavors. A savory element provides a further leavening influence. Finishes long, with firm but suave tannins. Lovely wine with real personality. Stephen Tanzer, Vinous Media

Extracted blackberry, big but not too jammy. Bramble...y? Fun but would opt for a northern rhone wine ahead of this for overall complexity

Cherries, raspberries, hint of tobacco. Needs to be decanted, would be great with aged cheese or red meat

Long decant on this one. Was significantly better the next day. Price is right.
