"Singed cinnamon, dried cherry and persimmon notes form the core in this suave offering, which streams through a finish marked with bergamot, hazelnut and sandalwood. Leans toward flattering with its sweetness, while a bitter orange hint whispers on the finish to lend contrast and spine." —Wine Spectator

"Toffee and salted nuts. Caramel. Smoke. Dried cherry. Full-bodied. Medium sweet. Lots of dried fruit and butterscotch. Small amount of tannin tension gives this a sense of freshness." —James Suckling
