Review:

Aromas of blackberries and plums meld with notes of dark-chocolate and sage. Flavors of blackberry, cherry, and plum unfold into suggestions of oak and spices. A fairly light wine, with plush tannins, and a fairly dry finish, it’s for fans of more elegant reds with a slight mineral character.

Rating: 89

Character: dark fruit, supple mouthfeel, fine tannins
