Dark cherry and cocoa flavors with extraordinarily smooth and balanced tannins. The harshness present a few years ago is all but gone, and now hints of vanilla and spice are a welcome part of a very satisfying finish. Drink now. This wine is probably at or near its peak.

Had this Magnum and served at a party. Huge hit and well received. Complex, and deep.

Calicab fruit show, a bit overextracted for my taste with a cherry syrup finish.

Hot hot heat! Fruit subsided by alcohol but wore off a little after hours of decanting.
