| Verdict | Black cherry, baking spice and subtle smoke lead into juicy fruit that holds its flavor through a long, lingering finish. | Blackberry, cherry, and spice on the nose; a slightly sweet, soft berry sip with light tannin; short-medium, fruity and lightly spicy. Seventy-seven. |

| Likeness | — | The nose reads as red wine — blackberry, cherry, spice. The sip is softer and sweeter than that aroma, with only a light tannin to keep it in the wine register. |
