89 Points

Saturday, October 24, 2009 - Wow. This is a story wine. First, if you try it w/o well decanting you'll really feel it's <84pt wine with astringent tannins and light body, but decanting and time will mellow the tannins and fill in the body to a more balanced mid-weight wine with nice acidity and sweetness and nice finish. On the nose there's a strong aroma, and I believe it's a a mix of cherries and black current (though if it's not bordeaux, I would think about lychee too). Definitely not a party wine, since it needs too much care to bring out its qualities. 89-90pts.
