"Levy & McClellan's 2014 Red Wine is pliant, open-knit and seductive, with no hard edges and tons of sheer appeal. Red cherry jam, mocha and mint give the 2014 energy and resonance. Medium in body, which is to say in the style of the year, the Red Wine has turned out beautifully. It should drink well for the next 10-15 years, maybe more. This is a very strong showing."
