Reviews
Wine Enthusiast – “Cohesive aromas of tilled earth, tobacco and peppery spice are well-integrated into a rich cherry jam core on the nose. This is full, rounded and juicy in feel, showing luscious fruit jam flavors that don’t falter or loose definition, thanks to lifted acidity and a firm framing of polished tannins. Tobacco, earth and violet tones bring added depth, with a cherry skin tone lingering on the close.” (91 Pts, #89 ENTHUSIAST 100 2020)
Wine Spectator – “Light, snappy tannins define the flavors of crushed raspberry, fragrant leather and a touch of cured tobacco in this fresh, medium-bodied version. Balanced, with a chewy, spiced finish. Drink now through 2024. 20,000 cases made, 500 cases imported.” (90 Pts)
