PnP. Nicely balanced nose & palate of black berries & cherries, blueberry, with enjoyable hints of vanilla, roasted meat & savory spice. The tannins are very faint, and the medium long finish is silky & satisfying. Not as good as the last bottle (tannins), but still kept me going back for another sip.

PnP. Nose of black raspberries & cherries, leather & vanilla, softening, refined palate of cherry, unsweetend dark chocolate, light sandalwood, mild tannins and enjoyable finish. (Not bad for $9 on the clearance rack 5 years ago!)

Wow, big, tight wine. Double decanted with vigorous swirling. Began to open up after several hours and even the dregs the next morning were pretty wonderful!
The wine looks garnet colored. There is moderate sediment in the bottle. It smells like blackberry, black currant (cassis), red currant, cedar, lead pencil and eucalyptus. It tastes like forest floor, dust, blackberry and black currant (cassis). The body is full. The wine has silky texture. The wine finishes long. The wine has medium acidity.

This is really sweet right now. Black cherry galore, but far from fruit bomb. Wish you were here!
