Review:
Brick red color with hints of candied violets, allspice and earth on the nose. This wine is rich, full-bodied and
balanced with ample amounts of dark fruit and spice. The round mouthfeel is enlivened by juicy acidity and
firmly structured tannins. Intense black fruit and spice linger on the finish, leaving you wanting more. The 2010
Emery will age well for 5-8 years. - the winery
2009 Vintage Tasting Notes
Dark fruits waft with black currants and blueberries, unfolding into a warm, spicy fragrance of cherry brandy, clove, sandalwood, leather, and pipe tobacco. A nice, upfront acidity explodes into a lush, unexpected juiciness, which lingers then melts into a sweet, rich, and succulent mouth feel. Exceptionally balanced, nuances of oak accentuate the dark fruit-forward flavors of black cherry, black currants, and sugarplum, which then stretch out with long, soft tannins into final notes of toffee and vanilla. It will benefit from 3 years in the cellar and age well for 10 to 15 years from its release date. - the winery
