Wine Lovers' Notes:

In the Glass

This is a complex wine that brings together layers on the nose with brown sugar, nutmeg, cherries & plums and a palate revealing soft tannins earthy dry cedar and spiced cinnamon.

In Print

“This is lovely – so seamless, generous and complex. And yet another surprisingly charming, nicely evolving 2006. Expect an intense savoury nose of tobacco, currants, cedar and some pencil eraser. Very Bordeaux-like. It’s mid-weight, slim and well balanced with fine tannin. Raspberry-currant fruit, roasted red pepper and fresh herbs run to excellent length indeed. Enjoy now through 2013.”
–David Lawrason, winerytohome.com

91 points - "A very satisfying Bordeaux blend. Deep ruby in colour with a bouquet of cedar, red berries with a whiff of spicy oak. Medium-bodied, elegant and seamless on the palate, claret-like".
- Tony Aspler, Tidings

In your Life

Traditionally, a Bordeaux blend from an excellent vintage would pair well with lamb—and this one does! With its refreshing acid, duck or goose would pair well also.
