If you're going to drink this one now, put it in the decanter for at least 1-1.5 hours - it will shine. Vivid black cherry color, great color integration to meniscus. BIG rosemary nose with some pine forest floor and black cherry. Great fruit focus mid-palate with dark tree fruit and newly buffed saddle leather, hint of freshly foraged truffle. Fruit concentration sang throughout, finishing with lingering cardamom and dried red tea leaves. 92/B+ = 50/5/14/8/8/7

This wine was held for too long. Nearly all the fruit had faded and the color had turned towards the brown side. Drink it now.
