Ripe berries and spice aromas entice, and the palate continues to please with more raspberry and black pepper. The wine could use more dimension but the lively flavors and substantial finish add weight.——S.K.(4/1/2007)—— 84

Easy to drink, if somewhat herbal and light in body. Cedar and vanilla notes accent cherry-rhubarb aromas and flavors, picking up additional complexity in the form of cinnamon and mint. Tart and juicy on the finish. Imported by Abarbanel Wine Company. ——J.C.(4/1/2006)—— 85
