An earthy, dense four-grape blend that issues floral, cherry aromas in front of a creamy, candied palate that sports generic but nice plum, berry and cherry flavors. A smooth wine but one without much complexity; seems to have lost some of its identity in the blending process. ——M.S.(6/1/2011)—— 87
