Nose

Aromas of raspberry, mocha, black olive and leather, plus a suggestion of apricot (from the 7% viognier component, no doubt). - Steven Tanzer, International Wine Cellar

Palate

Polished, effortless and juicy, with blackberry, currant, black olive and tar flavors, beautifully balanced to rotate all its facets as the finish keeps spinning. Harmonious and expressive. - Harvey Steiman, Wine Spectator

Appearance

Good dark red. - Steven Tanzer, International Wine Cellar
