  Sandalwood, cassis and camphor on the nose. Notes of blackberries and violets. Fine tannins, well integrated and balanced.

  This was a nice drinking wine, but opened too young (I seem to have developed a pattern on doing that). On the nose, tart berry and rose? After a 1 hour decant, still a little tight but opened up with boysenberry, red fruit, and....Hawaiian punch? Fine tannin and nice acidity. This will continue to evolve.

  This wine is a deep purple with a pronounced intensity of aromas including blackberries, cassis, leather, butter, prune, vanilla, and game. The is developing. The wine is dry, with medium(+) acid, high tannin, high alcohol, full body, a pronounced intensity of flavors that are mostly consistent with the nose, and a long finish. This wine is very good and can be drunk now, but has the potential for ageing.
