This had a pleasant, oaky bouquet of black cherry, raspberry, baking spice and burnt toast aromas. The palate was smooth, dry and oaky with flavors that followed the nose. It was tasty, but a little simple.

We decanted this for 2 hours and drank it with fried veal on 1/15/10. It had a nice bouquet of cherry, raspberry, anise, spice and coffee aromas. The palate was smooth, medium bodied and dusty dry with flavors that followed the nose. I bought it on a friends recommendation. Later, after reading the reviews, my expectations dropped. Turns out my friend was right! It was a very pleasant surprise...quite enjoyable.

Odd. Not sure. Not corked. Not good.
