The last of these babies to go. Somewhat subdued but multilayered fruit with tinges of olive, dark leather and roasted plums. I know, who would have thunk it?!?

Didn't have too much of the funk I expected...brougt to a blind tasting and I was hoping to freak confuse the other participants. Very nice, though, but typical and not too outstanding or memorable, which I expect from this producer.

Nose of pickled red fruits and slight hints of earth. On the palate, wow; this is very much alive! Acids are still kicking, and tannins are fully integrated. Flavors of sour cherries, cranberries, roasted nuts, herbal notes, and damp soil. Thanksgiving in a glass. Very pretty wine, quite different than some of the more bruising (and I mean that in a good way) recent vintages.

Dense ruby, hint of brick, nose of massive buttered popcorn, oak, some nice dense fruit, beatiful texture on palate, b4, a4, t2, spicy fruit, slightly bitter finish, bit much wood, d2, wood is more integrated nice, tart, tangy fruit, bit simple
