Tuesday, December 5, 2006 - Color is a rich violet color, medium dark. Nose of charred fruit, raisin, quite a bit of alcohol even after an hour of decanting. Texture is very silky, seems thicker on the mid-pallette than right as you drink it. More charred fruit, sort of an overcooked plum flavor, some carmelized sugar. Finish is clean and short, and the fruit finish is less charred than the nose and taste, but it still lingers. Not as complex as I had expected, and its most redeeming qualities are the silky texture and fruit nose, although the fruit is charred.
