  Decanted for 45 minutes. Aromas of blackberry, currant, dried cherry, saddle leather and hint of chocolate. Flavors of blackberry, currant, dried cherry, hint of iron and hint of chocolate. Ends with a 40-45 second finish with blackberry and currant notes. This is still going strong and showing no signs of slowing down.

  Color: deep garnet
  Nose: plum, black cherry, cassis and tobacco
  Taste: plum, blackberry, vanilla
  This wine has a big, rich mouthfeel which coats the entire tongue. Lots of fruit upfront with an underlying vanilla and graphite essence.
  
  This wine is big with well integrated tannins. The finish lingers long enough to be noticed but wish there was a bit more.

  Simply singing! Wonderful black cherry and cassis aromas and flavors with layers of mocha, spice, and oak on the long finish.
