Wine Spectator review: 90 - "Pureed raspberry, plum and spice flavors are lined with dusty tannins in this fresh, focused red. Hints of milk chocolate add a touch of richness, with floral and spice notes lingering on the crisp finish. Drink now through 2019. 645 cases imported."
My review: Wasn't a huge fan of this one by itself. Fresh, fruity aromas with layers of strawberries and raspberries. Medium tannins give this red blend a dry, tart finish that'll make your lips pucker and leave your mouth watering, which makes me think this wine is meant to be paired with food.
I tasted this wine without food.
