  July 11, 2010 - At the beginning cherries and some vanilla notes was Fidel to the wS review, but as dinner develops more complexities open up.
  Cherries meet chocolate as some good vintage ports would bring...
  In the mouth nice acidity strong tannins give to ripe fruit cherries and blackberries and chocolate after tones
  Very nice

  October 17, 2008 - 14% alcohol. thick legs with rasberries, jam and anise on the nose. solid acidity on the palate, smoothed out tannins and rasberry, toast, granite, licorice and cherry flavors are dense and delicious. time has really integrated all the aspects of this wine. it's dense, but well-balanced and there's a nice cherry liquer aspect on the finish.
