Medium ruby to clear at rim. Really pretty fruit with some smoke and flowers. Seems much more complete than past bottles. Smooth, elegant black cherry fruit. Complete from start to finish. Nice job. (89)

Pale ruby going orange. Floral, sweet fruited and spicy oak tinged nose. The palate sweetened and deepened with air but remained a bit lean. A slight metallic finish is not good. Serviceable, best on the nose, but under nourished for sure. (80)
