Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
Though the nose seems dark and brooding with notes of black cherries, smoke and spice, on the palate, this is surprisingly light and fresh with a bright sour cherry acidity and soft tannins. There’s a hint of green stems throughout this fairly light bodied wine.

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
Although the plush plum and coffee grind flavors combine seductively with hints of bramble and earth in this rustic, full-bodied wine, pervasive notes of char and a stalky, green character make this wine a bit clunky. Sturdy tannins, combined with black spice and tar drive a long finish.

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
Sweeter smelling than the usual Chard, with peach preserves, lychee, pear and pink florals unfolding in the bouquet. The mouth offers more oak-driven balance, with notes of cedar plank and spiced pears filling the cream-textured mouth. Seals the deal with a lingering, toasty finish.
