Sunday, December 5, 2010 - nose: ripe and rich nose of blue fruits, black fruits, black cherries and some liqueur tones. Fairly forward but balanced without being overdone
taste: medium/full bodied with good firm tannins along with ripe tones of black fruits, blue fruits, and black cherry tones. Though the tannins are noticeable are polished and help bring a real silky feel
overall: This is quite young and could use some time to round into form. Well balanced and forward on both the palate and nose, this didn't come off as old world blind and I guessed it as new world
