- TASTING NOTE: "With really deep-set berry fruit aromas on the nose here, this has plenty of ripeness and assertive character to it. The palate's bursting with fresh cherry and strawberry flavors, neatly paced tangy acidity, plenty of flesh and a berry pastry twist to close. Great balance. Drink now." 92 Points - JamesSuckling.com
