Vintage Cellar Review: 4 months in new American oak barrels. Bright ruby-red. Dried cherry, pipe tobacco and rose aromas, with a hint of woodsmoke. Sweet and fleshy on the palate, with blackberry and cherry flavors complimented by licorice and a suggestion of dried herbs. The cherry and smoke notes repeat on the finish.
My Review: This wine smelled like a cherry fruit roll-up. It was very spicy and smokey, too over the top for my taste. I could not taste any fruit; it was masked by the smoke and spice. I did not like this wine.
