I reviewed the 2011 earlier this year (I liked it), and this one is a very nice cheap wine as well.
Crystalline dark ruby with a bit of magenta (get out your damn 64 pack of Crayolas if you don't know what that is) at the rim. Straightforward but very nice nose of dark, ripe raspberries and dark stony minerality. Pure and richly fruity in the mouth, with loads of powdered stone minerality and a vigorous, athletic mouthfeel. Nice weight and concentration, and a very nice, balanced finish with good acids counterbalancing full body. B. Was $9 at Total Wine in Mclean, VA. Imported by Saranty Imports, White Plains, NY.
