"Color: deep; Nose: fragrant; Aromas: spicy, tree fruit, red berry; Acidity: supple; Sweetness: dry; Body: medium-bodied; Finish: medium; Overall: pleasant; color: deep purplish-red
nose: strawberry jam
taste: strawberry jam all the way, tastes like a chateaneuf-du-pape, sour cherry, black pepper, a little hot but overall good balance."

"Packed with ripe fig, licorice and currant paste flavors, backed by cocoa and graphite notes. The dark, muscular finish has some serious grip, so cellar short-term to let it round into form. Best from 2008 through 2010. 4,585 cases made. –JM
Wine Spectator ranked #99 most exciting wine of the year."
Best 2008-2010
