  Smooth, deep, and subtle. A fine example of the varietal.

  I just opened this bottle today--must've gotten lost in my cellar. It was magnificent. Aged wonderfully over 5 years. Intense, smokey pepper with a lingering finish, and yes, a bit of a burning on the way down.

  Black cherry, blackberry, and blueberry. Tobacco and SYV terroir. Moderate tannin, good acidity, and a slight alcohol burn on the finish.

  Dark cherry and chocolate. Surprisingly, I would call this medium bodied. Moderate tannin and good acidity. A hint of earthiness as well.

  Cherry and integrated tannin up front. Earthy SYV elements elements with solid acidity and complexity provide a solid finish.
