This round, darkly-hued, well-balanced wine has deep cherry fruit and cedar accents. Hints of licorice, mineral and toast complement the fruit. Nice balance and mouthfeel, too, and it’s lively right through the finish. Drinking well now.

Rubbery berry aromas accompany notes of smoke and leather. The palate is medium in weight but fairly robust in terms of acidity. And the cherry, plum and berry flavors are good yet common. Middle-of-the-road red wine meant for pizza and pasta.
