Wine Critic Review (Provided by Vintage Cellar)Dark, ruby-red color with violet highlights. Intense and fragrant bouquet with a rich array of red and black fruit aromas and flavors. Harmonious and velvety on the palate. Great balance and structure.
My Review: This wine smelled like dark berries. It tasted bitter to me, with a bite at the finish. I would let it age a lot more to settle the tannins down on this wine.
