Medium to full bodied, this wine is loaded with blackberries, spice, vanilla on the nose. These characteristics all flow nicely onto the palate which also adds some mint. Twenty months on American oak has added a lovely edge of sweetness.
A fine finish with blackberries, spice and vanilla all coming to the fore once more.
A very impressive and great value wine for $27, which is readily available at present. A great buy for an '06.
Drink now or within the next couple of years.
