  Deep red in glass. Smooth as silk, rich nearly sweet red fruit, cherry, just enough acid and tannin (barely) to keep it honest. Light vanilla on top. A bit of wood, maybe cedar or something a bit perfumed. Seductive in its way, but with not so much complexity or depth to create intrigue and interest. Bought way back and it is definitely time.

  Did two glasses - one pnp the other through an aerator. The PnP was still tight and almost harsh. These notes are for the aerated glass. Dark ruby color with a nose that came across with dark fruit, chocolate, cedar and vanilla. Very pleasant to sniff. Tasting the wine showed vanilla, muted dark fruits and finished with some nice tannins. Tastes like this should be drunk now, my last bottle and it was enjoyable.

  Most likely a bit overaged at this point, although some notes of fruit came out after decanting about an hour. Mostly savory notes of leather and roasted oak.

  Aged wonderfully right now, very smooth and well balanced. Paired perfectly with a nice steak with salt and pepper.

  ruby, medium body, cassis aromas, dark, jammy fruit flavor with oak and earth, moderate finish, oxidizing after an hour; drink up!
