Nice ripe aromas, plenty of oak but pretty soft and jammy.

Love this wine, great every year I've had it. Strong alcohol on the nose. Deep ruby color. Delicious berry and light cherry flavor, not overpowering, well balanced with hints of spice, moderate oak, velvety tannins. Highly recommended, but expensive for an everyday wine, wish it was perpetually on sale!
