"On the predominantly savory nose, aromas of tar, wood and underbrush are balanced by rich fruit notes of black cherries and plums. On the palate, berries underscore the cherry elements, while an undertone of sun-warmed stone creates a smooth, velvety palate, but with plenty of acid to maintain balance. Best Buy. ‡D.C."
