This just keeps on getting better, adding additional layers of fruit, levels of complexity and sensuality to the texture. Full-bodied, intense, rich and deep, with a strong sense of minerality, give this 12-15 years in the cellar before you pop a cork.
Sensual, concentrated, luscious, deep and focused, this is another hot librarian in lingerie. Precise, with layers of velvet-textured plum and black cherries, the wine is decadent with freshness and lift with a strong sensation of crushed stone to add complexity. The finish leaves you with a feeling of self-indulgence. Sophisticated, sleek and ready with succulence, this darkly colored wine was produced from 80% Merlot and 20% Cabernet Franc, reaching 14.2% alcohol with a pH of 3.4. The harvest took place September 29 to October 15.

Deep purple color. Bursting with berry nose. Firm tannins. Decanted for 7 hours. May need a bit more. Only bottle I had, would wait 7-10 if you have.

Glorious wine. Intense. Sensuous. Creamy. A lovely wine waiting to burst out into full bloom, and that will be a great experience when it happens.
