Critic Review: Opens with floral, blueberry aromas, mineral notes and a spot of jammy candy. The palate is alert and well balanced, with grab and juicy flavors of raspberry and plum offset by a wave of buttery oak. Textured, full and satisfying on the finish. Very nice wine. -- Wine Enthusiast (89 pts)
My Review: This wine had a cedar, leathery flavor. It was reminiscent of bark from an old tree or a library with "old people smell." I actually really enjoyed this wine; however, it was pretty heavy. While I completely got the oak flavor, I did not pick up on specific fruits as detailed in the critic review.
I did not taste this wine with food.
