October 13, 2013 - - Garnet color with medium forming legs. It's in total harmony with a full body. Flabby texture with a long finish - Red-Brown with a brickred rim. Surprisingly fresh, maturity notes, autumn forrestal scents, black berries, sweet plums. Full bodied, well-balanced, acidity which well balance the somewhat sweet aftertaste. Long aftertaste and finish.

July 6, 2012 - Mature, elegant fruit and secondary spice notes on the nose. Ripe plum and blackberries, cardamon, vanilla and leather, some menthol freshness, lengthy dry finish, very tasty still but past it's best.
