Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
The wine kicks off with raisin and lemon pith notes. Next come sweet but off-kilter flavors of prune, boysenberry and sugar beet. The finish is packed in tight, but the core is a bit sour. This wine is like the proverbial hare: It starts out fast but fades before the finish line.

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
This is a youthful wine that’s a bit rough right now. It starts out with bacon and tar-like aromas before shifting into a mouthful of cherry fruit. The finish is tight and grainy, while the overall profile is tannic and jumpy. Some time in the bottle should help it all come together.
