Medium deep ruby. Nose of brite red fruits, some spice, and cigar box. Smooth entry, solid center and a 3&1/2 lapper finish. For the 1st half hour there seemed to be a slight trace of brett that blew off but also added some character to the wine. Still some unresolved soft tannins that need another 1-3. Very well made juice. 88/90. 26 by the box.13.5% alc. WW
