Saturday, July 11, 2009 - Nose of cassis, currants, and a candied fruit note. Palate is smooth and lush, with chewy tannins. Had a very ripe fruit profile, with obvious cassis and vanilla. nice lengthy finish of mocha, stone and cedar. Still a little disjointed but balanced, with the oak influence standing out, but I think this will integrate well and be a solid drinker in the medium term. Enjoyable as a pop and pour at a wine bar, and with a good decant may be singing now.
