Our Note:
(NO whole cluster)
A deeper ruby red core, vibrant ruby edges. The pronounced nose wafts easily from the glass, bing cherry, wild summer strawberry, some blood orange too, subtle spices emerged in the glass nicely with cinnamon and sandalwood, well integrated oak and fruit, subtle baking spices, some toast from the oak. Med/med+ bodied, med/med+ acidity, this settles in nicely on the palate, with a more pronounced intensity, but also very elegant and perfectly integrated flavors. A long, pleasant finish. Outstanding!
