Savory red fruits with a touch of cedar and tobacco accompany the red berries and cassis. Medium-bodied, fresh, energetic and sweet with a nice purity to the red pit fruits on the palate and in the finish. Give this a few years in the cellar and if it fills out, it will be a better wine. 89-91 Pts

Dark on the nose and palate, the wine is lush, rich, ripe, fruity, fleshy and polished, with a big blast of opulent, sweet fruits on the palate and in the hedonistic finish. Give this a few years of age, allowing it to become an even better wine.
