Sunday, February 12, 2012 - Color is fairly transparent ruby. When first popped the nose was distinct red cherries, with some floral notes, wet stone, some damp musty notes, and a little vanilla.
Medium to full bodied with cherries and floral notes on the palate. Tannins are smooth and well integrated. Has a medium fruit and vanilla finish. Could use more time in the bottle. Decent effort, but not a favorite.
