Beautiful nose with cherry, black cherry and plums. Rich red color. Concentrated burst of fruit on initial front palate. Great finish with balanced tannins and fruit on the back side, love this wine wish I had more - drink now.

I was very surprised and disappointed with this wine. Maybe it was a flawed bottle. I have one more that I will open to see if it is better. I have had the previous 3 vintages (2004-2006) with great results. This wine lacks fruit flavors and is too dry with a stale taste. Very heavy tannins.

Raspberry and cherry nose. Pallet follows the same flavors and a hint of leather. Slightly dry, but smooth vivid flavors.
