Wine Enthusiast Review
Rated 91
Strawberry jam spread on a warm scone is a nice aromatic introduction to this wine. A powdery lilac scent floats in the background. This is a fuller-bodied wine compared with the previous vintage, with blackberries battling dark chocolate-covered espresso beans for flavor supremacy. Brawny tannins provide ample support.
