Red and jammy, with a lot of sweet raspberry on the bouquet. Not much meat or darkness here; instead it’s overtly bright on the palate, where pie cherry, cranberry and apple skins reign. Simple in its singular focus on red fruit. Could be perfect for those who don’t want to taste a lot of oak. A Marc de Grazia Selection, various importers. ——M.S.(7/1/2005)—— 87
