Tasting Notes - '"Good deep, bright red. Currants, black raspberry and dark chocolate aromas accented by tobacco and graphite; a bit international in style. Then supple and savory in the mouth, showing sound acidity and the cut of the year. Finishes with fairly light tannins, a slight bitter note from the oak and nice grip." (Tanzer)
