•Shop/wine critic/winery review: 88 points – Stephen Tanzer Dark purple. Zesty, youthfully medicinal aromas of dark berries, licorice and cracked pepper. Juicy and fresh, with smooth texture and sweet cherry and spice flavors framed by dusty tannins. Finishes with a suggestion of slightly roasted fruits and good clinging persistence. Delivers a lot of power and richness for the money.

Review:
This wine definitely had some bite from the tannis and was more dry. It did not smell too fruity, it had a natural, earth smell. I liked the wine!
