Straight-ahead in style, with red cherry on the nose along with some saucy, marinated aromas. Runs a bit lemony and lean on the palate, but at the surface level it’s solid. Peppery and upright on the finish, with a little bitterness. For the most part, it’s spicy and right. Imported by Global Vineyard Importers.——M.S.(11/1/2005)—— 85
