Purple in color and opaque in the glass. Aromas of blackberry, black cherry, orange peel, milk chocolate, and sweet herbs on the nose. Tastes of black cherry and white pepper on the palate. Medium(+) in body with medium tannins and a long finish. I might have waited a little too long to open this bottle but it definitely wasn't on any downward trajectory. Palate folded over and over in the mouth. Great texture.

Tasted blind. Dark purple color turning ruby violet at the rim with a reflective edge. The nose is opulent with floral notes and exotic spices wrapping around red berries. The palate is rich, incredibly ripe, round and polished with notes of raspberry, dark cherry, and blueberry followed by secondary notes of toasted oak. Finishes long with hints of black pepper. Drink now until 2033. 92+

Dark inky wine. Tannins are smoothed out, fruit still there but fading
