"Saturated ruby. Very spicy on the nose, which displays blackberry, blueberry, white pepper and cinnamon qualities. Sappy dark berry flavors combine intensity with depth, picking up candied licorice with air. Turns sweeter on the finish, which leaves an exotic floral note behind. This went through multiple changes in the glass and is utterly delicious now." (Sept/Oct '08) From Wine Spectator: "A plush red, delivering fresh ripe fruit flavors of black cherry and boysenberry backed by toasty oak. It's generous with just enough tannins for grip. Drink now through 2011. 500 cases made." (Dec. 15, 2008) Stephen Tanzer's International Wine Cellar

Review

A plush red, deliversing fresh, ripe fruit flavors of black cherry and boysenberry backed by toasty oak. It's generous, with just enough tannins for grip. A modern style. Drink now through 2011. 500 cases made. –TM Wine Spectator
