Winery Review: Pureed raspberry, plum and spice flavors are lined with dusty tannins in this fresh, focused red. Hints of milk chocolate add a touch of richness, with floral and spice notes lingering on the crisp finish. Drink now through 2019. 645 cases imported. - Wine Spectator, 90 pts

My Review: Dark berry, blackcurrant and almost a licorice like taste. Full bodied, and rich. Pretty smooth and full of tannins and acidity.

With/without food: I tasted this on its own without food.
