Shop/Wine Critic Review: "Vivid ruby. Pungent red berry and peppery spice scents
show good focus and lift. Gently sweet and incisive on the palate, offering jammy
raspberry and cherry flavors that tighten up slowly on the back half. Finishes taut and
spicy, with supple tannins sneaking in late." – Vintage Cellar
My Review: This wine was heavy on berry flavors, mainly raspberry, with slight citrus flavors on the palate. Similar to the previous wines, the spiciness was very strong and finished off the wine in an unfavored way. I really did not like this one because of the lasting spiciness. I did not drink this with food.
