What a nice showing for a 2nd wine. Cassis and blackberry, a light (nice) edge of bell pepper, some pencil shavings. Moderately framed, ready to go. B+/B

Clear, light brick red, orange-brick rim. Clean nose, notable blackcurrant, cedar, coffee, vanilla. Medium-intensity palate, very well integrated, fine tannins, nice acidity. Medium length finish. Nice second wine, still drinking well, but I can't see it improving and I'd suggest drinking in the next two years.

Excellent second wine! The nose is fabulous, intense and complex. Medium-bodied, well-balanced. Think this is at its best right now. Will certainly last at least 5 more years. Very good value
