This is a very aromatic wine, with fresh dark cherries and plums and a touch of pepper and bark. In the mouth, this is juicy, fruity (raspberries, figs, plums), and well structured by round tannins. It is complex, with a touch of savory dried herbs and woodsy notes, hints of coffee and chocolate, and a great mouthfeel. It’s definitely food-oriented, though it is also pleasurable alone.
Attractive scents of violets, blackcurrants, plums and smoke are intertwined and sensual. The palate is medium plus in weight with wonderful damson plums, black cherries and black cap raspberry fruits that taste macerated with baking spices and joined by smoky notes and dark chocolate. This is not at all heavy -- it has just-right richness and some minerality and juicy acidity to keep the ripe dark fruits in check.
Aromas of black currants and dark chocolate lead to a medium plus-bodied wine with ripe and concentrated fruit that manages to stay refined and fresh. The fruit is reminiscent of morello and black cherries and macerated plums, joined by notes of hazelnuts, mocha, saddle leather, Mexican chocolate dust and savory molé. This Cabernet Sauvignon shows some restraint from a high elevation site with its cool evenings and is slightly aged.
This non-vintage red blend combines fruit-driven young wine with more mature reds. It begins with aromas of cooked red and black fruits, toast, tobacco, spices, roasted red peppers and herbs. It then shows off well integrated cherry and currant fruit, toast, cinnamon, baking spices, sweet tobacco leaf and cigar box on the palate. This is ripe, but not jammy. It's just over medium weight with moderate acidity. A very good value!
