Inky ruby with clear red highlights. Blueberry, cedar, and spice nose. Medium to full bodied, blackberries, sage, black cherries, pepper, fully integrated tannins, good acid, and a nice long finish. Took some time to open up (like, a whole day), but it was worth it.

Two and a half hour decant, this is a big boy of a wine, with dark fruit and caramel on the nose and palate along with a graphite element. Tannins are ever on the forefront with this full bodied, fairly hot wine.

Outstandig wine even in its young years. Give it a good 40 minutes on decanter before starting to drink. Very smooth, good balance. Could age for many years more and should really improve over the next 3-4 years.

Full and savory with blueberry, caramel and black spices with a warm and savory finish. Quite intense and alcoholic. Big punch. 90
