Vintage Cellar Review: 90 pts, Stephen Tanzer
Bright purple. High-pitched red and dark berry scents show good clarity and pick up a licorice nuance with air. Tangy and focused on the palate, offering juicy black raspberry and spicecake flavors with an exotic touch of candied violet. Closes spicy and long, with silky tannins building slowly and adding gentle grip. This is a fantastic value.
Macy's Review: I've actually had this wine before, so it was a nice treat to taste it again when I have a little more knowledge of wine. The first time I had it I did not like it. Now I know why I didn't like it. It was toasty and warm. The finish was very unpleasant. I would not recommend.
