($15) Bright red. Spicy cherry and red berry aromas show a vaguely candied character. Firm and juicy, with vibrant, spice-accented redcurrant and cherry flavors on a silky, medium-bodied frame. Softens on the finish, showing an alluring spicy quality and good persistence. This is still youthfully tangy so give it some air. . (Epicurean Wines, Seattle, WA)
