TASTING NOTE: Inky ruby. Intense aromas of blackberry and blackcurrant, with sexy oak spice and mocha elements. Sweet, broad and plush, with ripe dark fruit flavors showing impressive power and depth and an almost liqueur-like quality. Smooth and seamless in texture, finishing on a sweet, sappy note of cassis, with round, harmonious tannins adding shape. Score - 92 (Josh Raynolds, vinous.com, Sept. 2014) Price $ 29.95
