Silky smooth and full of black fruit, mainly currant and cherry. Smooth tannins and a light amount of used oak add to the subtly of this wine. Medium finish makes it worthwhile.

silky ripe plum with a bit of currant and tobacco/bell pepper; nicely integrated oak and good balance. Worked will with the big hunks meat, but smooth enough to sip on its own.

Black cherries with a hint of oak on the nose. Initially a little hot. Not much going on, light to medium body with a little cherry and a little pepper. Dry to almost off dry finish.

Very smooth and balanced. No tanins or a long finish. Past it's prime. Good bottle, but not great.

Very nice and well structured wine. Blackcurrant backbone and black cherry fruit. Hints of soft oak and warm vanilla notes. Silky tannins .
