Very attractive nose with cream and cassis. Opened after about 45 minutes (Venturi poured). A little gritty on the palate which detracts enough to make an impression. Still has a lot of time left based on the tannins still present. Score [ 50 + 5 + 13 + 15 + 8 ] = 91.

Persistent fruit forward. Oddly reminiscent of a Super Tuscan, with black fruit, cream and a whiff of vanilla that is overpowered by cedar which defines the finish. Enjoyable. Score = [50 + 5 + 13 + 16 + 8] = 92.

- It's somewhat balanced with a light/medium body. Narrow texture with a short finish.
