Winery Review: Lightly spicy aromas and rich, soothing fruit flavors make this an attractive, lovable and classically proportioned wine. Cherry and raspberry flavors rest on a lightly tannic but smooth texture, and linger on the finish.

My Review: Cherry is at the forefront of the aroma and is backed up with a whiff of fresh forresty air. The cherry and other forresty fruit come through onto the tannic palette. Oxygenation brings on a pungent spice that works well with the present flavors.  This bottle presentation in particular prepares you well for the wine it contains.

Tasted without food.
