"The Meyer Vineyard, in the Red Hills of Dundee, ripened especially well in 2006, bringing forth concentrated fruits that mix raspberry, cranberry, pie cherry and finishing hints of rhubarb. Spice and sharp acids add definition to the midpalate, and the careful barrel aging has introduced accent notes of nutmeg, licorice and black tea. Despite its heft and substantial 14.6% alcohol, this wine has a sleekness that carries it gracefully into a lengthy, elegant finish." 91 points - Wine Enthusiast, December 15, 2008
Dark red. Powerful aromas of black raspberry, cherry and mocha, with slow-mounting Indian spices. Pliant dark berry flavors are framed by velvety tannins and given bite by a note of bitter cherry pit. Gains weight and sweetness with air, finishing with a strong echo of blackcurrant. This will stand up to a strongly seasoned piece of grilled or braised lamb. 91 Points, Stephen Tanzer's International Wine Cellar, May/Jun 09 |
