this wine surprises by being so very pretty—unexpected from such a hot site. lovely scents of raspberry, strawberry, mint and spice lift the nose; the palate is medium-bodied, nicely tart, perfectly balanced and long. the mix of sweet and tart red fruits lasts deliciously, with the spice adding grace notes. though blended and aged in 100% new french oak barrels, the oak is muted, and the fruit shines through.
