"(aged in 60% new French oak): Inviting bright red-ruby color. Fruit-driven aroma of blueberry liqueur complicated by dusty herbs. Plush and nicely concentrated, showing a strong spice character to its dark berry and licorice flavors; I like the balance of fruit sweetness and restrained oak. Firm acids and big, dusty tannins give this wine real spine. In a distinctly savory style. - Stephen Tanzer"
