”Ruby red. Bright raspberry, kirsch and mineral dominated bouquet is jazzed up by incense, floral oil and Asian spices, Seductively sweet and pliant, with deep red and blue fruit liqueur flavors and subtle tannins. Clings tenaciously on the strikingly long, silky finish.” – Stephen Tanzer, International Wine Cellar Rated 92 points ------------------------------- Coffee, cola and earth flavors run though this burly red. There's a core of plum fruit, and enough acidity to keep it lively. Muscular but well-integrated, with lots of oak. Grenache, Carignane, Syrah and Cabernet Sauvignon. Best after 2008. 950 cases made. –TM Wine Spectator 89
