Medium garnet color. Decent nose. Lots of dark, stewed fruits in nose and on palate. Everything smoothed out from possible complexity and spice to now being rather blah, not offensive or bad, just not interesting. I think this would've been much better 3 years ago, likely 88-90. Shame on me.

PnP. Medium body and color. Nose of cherries & black berries with vanilla & leather. Palate of cherries, raspberries and tobacco with a mildly spicy finish. A nice, easy-drinking wine.

PnP. Nose and palate of a spicy, syrupy black & raspberry jam, with a medium long finish.

Nice nose of blackberries, spice and earthiness, palate of dark fruit and tobacco (lives up to its name), medium finish.

Nicely fruit forward with a surprising earthy peppery finish.
