Chunky red, with aromas of berry, mint, cherry and wet earth. Full-bodied and velvety, with lots of fruit and a long, minty finish.

Dense aromatics with black plum, game, leather, menthol, oak and anise notes open this full-throttle red. The plate shows impressive depth of flavor with tart plum and bitter chocolate notes, as well as fine fruit to acid balance. The long, dry, even finish wraps it up beautifully with black fruit and bitter chocolate notes.——W.E.(2/1/2001)—— 92
