Januik

90 PTS WINE SPECTATOR. The '08 Januik Red Wine (Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon, Syrah and Cabernet Franc) is dense and chewy, with layers of raspberry, cherry, mineral and spice flavors.

Rich and creamy, with a flair for the dramatic. A serious wine, with international ramifications; long, lush finish.

Red fruit aromas with gentle hints of spice dominate the Januik Merlot; full bodied, well balanced with a long sweet finish.

Januik Cabernet is a renowned producer; the wine is ripe and bold in style; black fruit, sweet oak and full textures; can take on must savory beef dishes.
