Sunday, September 17, 2006 - (Decanted for 4 hours) Inky purple in color, on the nose cedar, blackberry & licorice. Full bodied wine with a wonderful core of pure black fruit and clove. Sensational mouthfeel and the tannins were fine & grainy. This wine is hugely concentrated but has finesse & excellent balance. This has a long life ahead of it, a lovely wine!
