There is a restaurant we frequent and this bottle frequently calls my name from the wine list, I decided to have it at home for it's $22 retail instead of the marked up list price. I respect Torbreck, we need to drink their stuff more often.
Cherries on the nose.
Quite big - not over the top ridiculous, but big nonetheless - cherries, vanilla, a little bit of oak but mostly fruity with some mocha and even some bell pepper qualities.
Plummy, peachy, cherry-y....a big finish with all sorts of stone fruit without any burn.
Can't knock it, but I'm also not knocking over old ladies to grab another bottle.
Score: 86
