  Superb, black currants, cassis, chocolate, integrated tannins, long finish, a real crowd pleaser at great QPR.

  Deep, dark reddish-purple in color. Full, forward & fragrant nose of ripe fruit aromas of cherries, blackberries & plums with overtones of earthy/dusty & some floral notes, herbs, spices, minerals & oak/vanilla notes in the background. Medium-full bodied with a good concentration of smooth textured & well balanced, ripe fruit flavors of dark cherries, blackberries & plums with spices, herbs, minerals & a hint of oak/vanilla. Lingering finish. Drinks quite well at present with decanting & extended airing & even at 7 years of age, it should develop further with a few more years of additional aging.
