Medium body. Soft, light tannin. Uberripe black cherry, plum and blackberry. Some sweet woody and kernel notes. Nice aroma but a little thin, especially for 2012. Finish kinda just falls apart. Wasnt knocked out by it, but wouldnt kick it out of bed.

Decent wine I wouldn’t rate it as high as these other reviews but not bad to the point where I wouldn’t purchase again
