There’s a lot to love in this budget friendly bottling. The aroma profile has great depth, showing cherry, dry earth, cardamom and hibiscus, leading to a palate that doesn’t disappoint, delivering the promise of the nose with full flavor, food friendly acidity and a long finish that brings a sweet oak note forward. At this price, I’d stock up before word gets out! A Platinum Award winner at the 2014 Sommelier Challenge.
