A supple, delicious wine with good consistency.
Cherry red color, nose: basket of black berries, palate: melted tannins, harmonious, fruity, very accessible.
Wafting from the glass with aromas of crème de cassis, plums, pencil shavings, petals, burning embers and discreet hints of new oak, it's medium to full-bodied, deep and layered.
The best wines this estate has produced in the modern era. (William Kelley)
An incomparable personality, with a complex bouquet full of charm.
The palate is medium-bodied with fine tannin and a crisp line of acidity, subtle notes of cedar with a composed, structured finish with plenty of freshness and vigor.
The medium to full-bodied palate offers soft acidity and a light chewiness to match the understated black fruit preserves flavors, finishing earthy.
