Consumed over 2 days. Nose: Anise, black berry, and smoke. A little more expressive on day 1. Palate: Full bodied, well balanced, very nice mouth feel with black fruits showing. Even more balanced on day 2. Finish: Lingering hints of black fruit and licorice lasting for 20-30 seconds. A very nice wine.

Ruby red color with a nose of black fruit and tar. Warm fruit on the tongue. Spice, light tannins and a medium long finish. Could use a little more time in the bottle or a touch more air before drinking.

Dense, ruby red color and a huge nose of black fruit. The fruit on my palate is elegant and smooth. Very slight tannins means this wine can be drunk now or laid down for the future. Wonderful long finish, too.
