Dark cherry, leather, some tar andsome smoke and black pepper. Very nice, and still not past its prime, open and let it sit for a while before drinking

Had last night with good friend neighborbill and Kim with thick porterhouse steaks, grilled carrots and grilled potatoes following a '93 bordeaux and '89 Dominus and finished while playing pool. Very good wine, dark purple, smooth and very pleasant - good QPR. Nose muted with primary flavors of black cherries, blackberries and licorice. Well balanced, good structure, pleasant lingering aftertaste and no off notes. Primary flavors consisted of very classic cassis, dark cherry, leather, some tar and later development of some smoke and black pepper. Recommend this wine.

Decanted for two hours. A nice smooth Cabernet with good structure and depth. Solid, enjoyable wine; good value
