Carrie's rating. Rich, succulent, well-rounded and a smooth finish. Blackberry, currant.
I'd rate it around 8.6

Jan 23rd, 2016Cranberry and smooth, getting drier as it finishes. The placard at Total Wine noted that it had a 'latex' taste. The sommelier was mystified and the description nearly put me off from buying it. Being a nurse, the last thing I want to put in my mouth in gloves...
I can see how someone could construe a rubbery flavor, but I would describe it as a clean, hinting at cloves, dryness that carries it to the end.
