Description

James Suckling 92

Notes of cocoa-dusted cherries, ripe raspberries, licorice and moist earth. Juicy and succulent on the palate with medium body and firm tannins. Delicious dark cherries with toasty, spiced character to close. Drink now.

Wine Enthusiast 91

An interesting aromatic combination of blackberries, Orange Curaçao, wet rocks and a trace of bacon fat commands attention. The medium-bodied wine's blueberry, oregano and strong black tea flavors are supported by fine-grained tannins and a decent bit of acidity. Go bold and drink this with blackened catfish.
