Wine Spectator review: An aromatic red, with floral and white peach notes accenting the black raspberry and plum flavors. This is open-knit and fresh, offering light tannins on the finish.
My review: I was expecting this wine to be pretty sweet and fruity/candy-flavored on the nose, but, surprisingly, it turned out to be very dry on the taste. The nose is extremely aromatic and the wine really opens itself up with a strong theme of licorice. The taste is also tannic and mouth-drying, there is a bit of acidity, and it has well-structured body.
I had this wine without food.
