Toasted oak, black cherry, tar, spice box. Smooth, creamy, oak driven tannins balance with fruit driven acidity. Palate sings with juicy cherry fruit. Finishes dry with persistence. Superiore classification shows with the heavier oak style. Paired with basil pesto salmon. — 7 years ago

Excellent. Wonderful mix of old world styling with contemporary accessibility. Tannins are certainly present but with some air and food, this was singing. Drink or hold. — 8 years ago
