Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
Concentrated black cherry notes on the nose and palate are accented by dark, mossy, bramble notes and hints of green and menthol. There’s a faint tomato leaf note that lingers throughout, but a rich fruit profile combined with smooth tannins and bright acidity make this medium-bodied wine a pleasant, straightforward pick.

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
Harmony is a good word to describe this spirited Bordeaux blend, with its perfumed black cherry nose accented with menthol and fresh-cut herbs. Fruit forward with ripe black fruits, dried herbs and a hint of olives on the palate, it’s a medium-bodied red wine that’s easily adaptable to an array of hearty meat and fowl dishes.

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
Rich and ripe on the nose with dark black fruit and olives, this is an easygoing blend of Syrah, Cab and Merlot. Medium-bodied in style, it’s soft on the palate with plush tannins and flavors of cooked plum compote accented by darker hints of olive and sage.
