What experts say about this wine

Wine Enthusiast

Juicy and delicious, this opens with aromas of iris, rose, dried aromatic herbs and wild berries. Smooth and medium-bodied, the palate features succulent Marasca cherry, ripe raspberry, ground clove and crushed mint set against taut, fine grained tannins. Fresh acidity keeps it balanced.
