International Wine Cellars (IWC) Review

Good fresh ruby. Bright, fruit-driven aromas of cassis, blackberry, licorice, maple syrup, menthol and flowers. Supple and expansive, with impressive depth of fruit for the vintage. Still tightly wrapped and firm-edged, but ripe, lively and long. The tannins are quite fine.

Plum and cassis flavors are ripe and concentrated in this powerful red. It has muscular but balanced tannins, accents of smoke and earth, and a long finish.
