14.7% alc., 193 cases, $60. Clones 114 and 115. Aged 16 months in French oak barrels, 66% new. · Moderate reddish purple color in the glass. The nose opens slowly with swirling offering aromas of black cherry and baking cocoa. Deeply flavored dark, dark black cherry and spice framed by fine-grain tannins and integrated oak. The silky texture appeals and the wine finishes with juiciness and extended length. Score: 91. Reviewed December 13, 2016
