Inky violet-red to the eye, this wine has a nose of cassis, butterscotch and fennel. It is smooth on the palate, with plush tannins and flavors of blackberry, black cherry, chocolate-covered caramel, orange zest and a hint of smoke. Bright fruit and touches of spice show on the lengthy finish. Editors' Choice. Score - 93.
