What a svelt, suave, complex bottle of juice that hides a core of solid black-fruit, spice, vanilla, and a touch of oak behind a facade of genteel lushness that completely bewildered my unwary tastebuds. This could pass in a few years for any grape you deigned. It took some concentration to put this sucker in it's catagory. A bright ruby brilliance that jumped from the glass like it was faceted. Sorry, I'm on one of 'dem poetic waxin' things. Needles to say, I Liked this sucker. WW
