Snappy and zesty from the very start, something we describe as “elegant.” This wine has some of the requisite richness and prune character of a good Amarone, but it leans more to red fruit, freshness and pop than heaviness. A sure thing with food, something many can’t offer. ——W.E.(11/1/2005)—— 91

Some clove and cardamom notes add character to the toasty, barrel-driven nose. In the mouth, rich black cherry and blackberry flavors seem as though they were infused with some brandy or Port. The finish is all fruit, so much so that one reviewer called the wine a fruit ball that departs from tradition. Still it’s ripe, healthy and should age for quite some time. ——W.E.(5/1/2003)—— 89
