So how is this wine? Well, all the things that come from really ripe grapes are definitely present; 14%+ alcohol, sweet cherry extraction, and a fat luxurious mouth feel. But even with all its girth, the wine has just enough acidity to hold everything together. Aromatically, there is definitely some of the herb and spice that is typical in our estate fruit, but with the richness of this wine, combined with the big chunk of toasty French oak; right now it smells more like a fresh baked cherry pie.
