Nose: Blackberry Jam, Licorice, Anise, Smoke and Graphite. Palate: Remains enormous in fruit (Blackberry, Cherry, Currant) but has a great note of eucalyptus and mint. Fully resolved tannins leave a very plush palate feel. Finish: Long with Cherry, Dark Chocolate, Graphite and some nice dusty herbs.
This will hold a while longer, but no shame getting into these. Unfortunately my last bottle.

Elegant nose, silky mouth feel, integrated tannins, plenty of cherry and dark fruit tones. Drinking well now.

Delicious, oaky, well balanced, dusty, slight burning from alcohol at first, mellows out to a beautiful napa cab.
