92 ST. "Deep red with a bright rim. Exotic, intensely spicy aromas of ripe blackberry, raspberry and strawberry preserves. This is all about fruit, with very subtle oak spices, cola and tobacco adding flavor interest and fresh acids giving it a juicy quality. Expands and deepens on the finish, which is persistent and quite sweet but not cloying. This is flat-out delicious." Stephen Tanzer's International Wine Cellar, May/Jun '06 |
