Top Notes For

9.0

Weak nose of cherry, berry and vanilla. On the palate, a leathery dryness and volatiles evolve of cocoa, mint and of course even more cherry/berry. Acidic dryness means this works best with rich foods. Aeration of this wine is a must to let the flavors loose. Fair value at $17.98.

Love the dark berry aromas and soft tannic bite. Grenache, carignan, tempranillo: what gives the flavor its grip, its allure. Not quite simple or rustic but not quite evolving in the glass, it is a wine to stimulate the imagination.
