Winery Review
Aged in small oak barrels for 12 months, then further refined in bottle before release. Deep ruby red, dark cherry, plum and blackberry aromas combine with intriguing spicy notes. Rich, concentrated dark fruit character against powerful yet silky tannins and bright acidity. Excellent structure, with a distinctive freshness to the fruit that creates an elegant profile.


My Review
Tasted like a cheap wine, looked promising but tasted like it was trying to be too many things at once.
