Practically leaping out of the glass with sweet vanilla, milk chocolate, butter, blackberries and toast. Think blackberry turnover, and then magnify that thought 100 times. More subtle on the palate but still on the sweet side. Overripe and oaky, but you have to give it due for being a decidedly "new world" style of wine. Like Aussie Shiraz because it's over the top? Try this.
