Can anyone help?
Can't seem to find any publication which reviewed this wine - tried 4 majors.
Need tasting notes - preferrable from major publication. Scoring optional but helpful.
Thanxabunch.

Wine Spec, Wine Advocate, Conn Guide, CA Grapevine and Wine Journal -- none rated the wine. That says something........

Yep,
And the winery could only send me the following:
WINEMAKER'S NOTE: Aromas of spicy clove and French oak lead to layers of supple blackberry and cassis fruit flavours and a soft velvety finish. Grapes from Stag's Leap, Tetjien (Rutherford Bench) and State Lane Vyd.
