  Blackberry, blueberry, red cherry, strawberry, smoke, earth, herbs, a little new leather, and spices on the nose. Blackberries, plums, tart cherries, red cherries, cassis, wood, herbs, and earth on the palate. Bright, mouthwatering acidity, integrated tannins, long finish. Quite a powerful wine but so much freshness and elegance from the acidity. Delicious. Wow, I loved this.

  From magnum. Just outstanding. Still very youthful and good structure though tannins have all but resolved.

  Full bodied. Jammy plum, black currant fruit. Some coffee and cassis on the finish. The tannins are just about fully integrated. This has gotten much better than when first released. Peak drinking?

  Yummy. Ok, let's get to details. A nose of primarily oak, dark fruit and surprisingly a little heat even though it's only 14.7%. Initial attack is fruit, raspberry, blueberry, a touch of cherry. The structure is excellent, tannins that are still alive and enough acidity to provide an solid base. A finish that is long and beautiful. This is a really pretty wine, if I may use this descriptor. And, after an hour in the glass, it really opened up suggesting a decant would be beneficial.
