Red fruits, licorice, dark cocoa, spice, and espresso form the core here. The wine is medium-bodied, forward, and a bit oaky on the palate at the moment, as well as over extracted. If the wine better integrates, it will be a better wine. The wine blends 93% Merlot, 5% Cabernet Franc, and 2% Malbec. Drink from 2027-2033. 88-90 Pts.

Cherries, flowers, and chocolate are all over the place here on the nose and palate. The wine is fresh, silky, energetic, and supple on the mid-palate, finishing with more of those ripe, soft, sweet, polished, creamy cherries, plums and lift in the creamy finish. Drink from 2025-2040. 91-93 Pts.

Medium-bodied, bright, fresh and vibrant, there is a crispness and vibrancy as well as a purity to the red and black plums here, but it lacks the depth and roundness found in the regular wine. This is unique as it is aged entirely without oak. Drink from 2025-2035. 89-91 Pts.

Black plums, cherries topped with chocolate, and licorice in the nose. You find more of that on the medium-bodied, round, fruit-packed, lush, fruity, chocolate, and espresso-filled palate with a cool note of spearmint that comes in at the end of the finish. Drink from 2024-2040.

My first time tasting this wine proved to be a nice experience. Medium-bodied, soft, and round, the cocoa-covered plums on the nose, along with the herbal, leafy, mint accents were on point. The finish was clean, silky and fresh, offering earthy, sweet and tart red fruits, dark chocolate and a spicy endnote. 89-91 Pts

Medium/full-bodied, ripe, round, lusciously textured dark cherries, black plums, licorice and chocolate are all over the place, in the nose and on the palate, which finishes with more ripe fruits, cocoa and espresso. Soft and silky, forward, fresh and fruity, this is already easy and quite nice to drink.
