Aroma of dusty cherries. Initial taste of viscous dusty plums then a burst of dusty slightly sour cherries. Don’t get me wrong , it is not sour but it has that hint of non sweet cherries. We had this with spaghetti squash carbonara which was perfect.

A little sweet, very smooth, reminds me of a Pinot Noir style.

16.5/20 (90/100) Вино с ароматами вишневого варенья, спелого красного яблока, мускатного ореха, лаврового листа, свежих огурцов и шоколада. Тельное с высокой кислотностью и интенсивными, но приятными по текстуре танинами. Очень хорошо.

Right out of the bottle there's a strong ripe berry nose. Very low tannins and, after breathing, smooth and nice berry flavor. Quite delicious!

Cline does not make a bad wine. This is one of their best. Big fruit and spice.

Very tannic & dry. Balsamic, but not very fruity. I would buy again.
