Critic Review: This silky red offers balanced flavors of cherry, red plum, tobacco, mineral and smoke. The smooth texture is supported by well-integrated tannins and gentle acidity. Harmonious. 89. -Wine Spectator

My Review: A deep red hue with plum/dark fruit and earthy aroma. Very smooth on the palate with noticeable tannins. Buttery, lingering aftertaste. Too dry for me to want to drink this again, but it was full of flavor and body. 

I tasted this without food.
