Sweet, ripe and black in style, with good structure and a little bit of heat and weight. The mouth offers ripe tannins, depth and balance, and the flavors of cassis, black cherry and fine herbs work in tandem. Smooth, with an easy dusting of cocoa on the finish. ——M.S.(12/1/2009)—— 88

There’s some tingle and bounce to the nose, which exhibits the variety’s herbal character. The palate is fresh, a touch sheering, and good overall; cherry flavors are in the lead, with vanilla playing second fiddle. Long and a bit grating on the finish. Carmenere with 15% Cabernet Sauvignon.——M.S.(7/1/2008)—— 86
