Saturday, October 31, 2015 - First bottle of this for me from any vintage, and this was a 375. Deep ruby to crimson in color. Aromas of freshly tilled soil, graphite, cassis, green pepper and jalapeño, cedar, and plum and black cherry. Medium body, acid, and finish, with a mix of dried, fresh, and stewed dark red and black fruits, along with black tea, leather, pencil lead, cinnamon, and mineral. Drinking well now, but lightly grippy towards the end of the (1/2) bottle. I enjoyed this. Try again in a year or 2 (no rush).
