A Best Buy
TASTING NOTE: Shows good density to the bittersweet chocolate, hazelnut and blackberry pie flavors, with sink-your- teeth-into-them tannins that add richness to the complex blend of flavors. Clove, nutmeg and cumin aromas linger on the long finish. Drink now through 2028. Smart Buys. Score - 92 (MaryAnn Worobiec, winespectator.com, June 30,2018) Price $ 16.95
