Description

93, Wine Enthusiast

This wine is rich, with aromas of dark cherry, red currant confiture, clove, dried flowers and dried bay leaf on the nose. The flavors on the palate are blackberry coulis, dark plum and black tea, interlaced with cocoa nib, vanilla cream and a dry, silky finish. Pair with grilled ahi tuna steak. — Tonya Pitts

91, James Suckling

A nicely structured and full-bodied wine that has good heft for a merlot. It shows a nice combination of red cherries, dark cherries and light savory, smoky accents. Moderate tannins add some texture and help the overall balance.

89, Wine Spectator

Sleek and generous, with polished flavors of raspberry and cherry highlighted by grilled herb tones that finish with zesty tannins. Drink now through 2030. 40,000 cases made.
