Initial impression of smoky black fruit, morphing into a slightly spicy finish with hints of raspberry. Ready to drink now and not likely to benefit from aging - it would just kill the fruit. Although not as intense as some of DeLoach's 'single vineyard' offerings, this is a good wine for the price. (MJA) - WB Team 2000-06-23
