93 VM "Inky purple. Compelling aromas of ripe cherry and raspberry liqueur, licorice, smoky minerals, spices and roasted coffee. Opulent and appealingly juicy on the palate, with intense dark berry, bitter cherry and vanilla flavors and a touch of mocha. Lively and expansive on the penetrating finish, with sweet tannins adding shape."
