| TASTING NOTE: Aromas of pipe tobacco, mature dark-skinned fruit, leather and cake spice meld together on this smooth structured red. The chewy, full-bodied palate delivers mature plum, black cherry marinated in spirits, mocha and cinnamon alongside velvety tannins. Drink 2017 through 2026. Score - 92 (Kerin O'Keefe, Wine Enthusiast, Dec. 31, 2016) |
