Light and lively, a bit tight but graceful and glowing with boysenberry and plum fruit, shaded with cedar and cream notes. The finish doesn't quit. Drink now through 2014. Tasted twice, with consistent notes. 79,023 cases made. Wine Spectator (10/15/11)
Deeply colored with aromas of minerals, red and black cherries, and spice, the wine opens in the mouth with rich, red and blue fruits, dark spice and dusty tannins. Great ripe acidity and tannic structure bring balance to this classic, succulent, intense wine.
