They make this one from grapes from all the vineyards you see on the label. It needs some more time but I was curious about it and have enough other bottles. The fruits are slightly candied and floral on the nose. A light touch of funk, bright, ripe; strawberries, dark cherries, cherries, cranberries, pomegranate, soft, sweet baking spices, and bright red florals. The body is round and lush. The fruits are a little darker on the palate. Poached strawberries, touch of blackberries, hues of blue fruits, dark cherries, cherries, cranberries, pomegranate, soft, sweet baking spices, Christmas cake, dark rich earth, soft, round limestone minerals, a little funk on the palate as well, fresh red florals, juicy acidity and a round fruit driven finish with crumbled minerals on the long palate set. I'd say better things ahead for this wine with five more years in bottle.

1 person found it helpfulApr 12th, 2016Deep Ruby with red fruit and gentle spice aromas, very complex. On the palate the wine displays cherry and raspberry flavors with developed smooth tannins and a hints of earth and spice. Well structured with good acidity balance on a long lingering finish ending with minerality. Wow! Will age nicely for a long time. Tasting Sample.
