Nice aromas suggest cassis and deep, wild mountain berry; the wine has a suppleness long missing from the Hogue lineup. Tannins are still quite evident, and in this young wine come across as just a bit green and scrapey. But with more bottle age, decanting, or maybe just a good greasy steak they will mellow and be entirely welcome.
