  Dark dark garnet color with intoxicating nose. This is a heavyweight boxer, no finesse, just flexing muscles the whole time. Dark cherry, blueberry, chocolate, vanilla and oak. Flavor is extremely consistent throughout. Seems like just a touch of eucalyptus on the end. This wine has the flavor of a 94+but does lacks the finesse I like. This wine has plenty fo life in front of it. If you can let it decant for at least an hour, you will be rewarded. Really nice wine.

  3 hour decant, subtle earth tones, perfect balance of dark fruit with nuanced charcoal under pinning a very smooth and lovely wine, second day lost most of its charm so if you still have a bottle drink same day

  Exceptional. Popped, dechanted, and drank with a grilled bone-in fillet. Drinking great right now. Tannins have softened revealing rich, dark fruits with a very nice, soft texture. Only one of these left in the cellar - wish I had more!

  Juicy blackberry, Cocoa, currant, some heat on the nose. Continues in the flavors with a strong finish.
