2013 Linne Calodo Problem Child Rhone Blend Paso Robles

Saturated ruby. A heady, explosively perfumed bouquet displays scents of ripe raspberry, incense and rose oil, with an intense spicy nuance adding lift. Stains the palate with potent red fruit liqueur and floral pastille flavors, with juicy acidity providing spine. Youthfully firm tannins build slowly through the strikingly long finish, which strongly repeats the red fruit and floral qualities. (JR) Review Date: September 2015
