I've read a little on the interwebs and so far it sounds good. I was wondering if any of you Snoothers had tried this stuff and could provide any feedback.What does it most clearly com... Read More

  Savory truffle under bright red berry on the nose. Rich, lush and pretty aromas. Infused with herb and spice with light hints of lavender. On the palate, it's rich, luscious and driven by red berry. Some suggestions of truffle. Savory wine and very nice. Great structure and balance. It's pretty and it lingers nicely.94 pts.3/9/13 Read More
