Wine Enthusiast
This nervy, appetizing and tightly balanced wine holds back a bit from complete ripeness to bring out tangy red- and black-cherry aromas, raspberry and cranberry flavors and a moderately tannic texture on a medium body. Made with native yeast, 45% of whole clusters and one-third new French barrels, it's a great showing in a slightly restrained style.
