Deep red/purple color. Nice concentration in the nose, with layers ripe plum and strawberry fruit. On the palate it is elegant and balanced, with a sturdy core of fruit and medium tannins

This was a pleasant wine with both meat and lasagna however I would say that it was too young to drink. Delightful nose however a bit harsh for my liking from beginning to end. I'll have to try this again in a few years.

Blackberry fruit, with lots of oak. Hard to get anything else on the nose and palate. Tannins need time to soften as right now it's not very drinkable.

Decanted about 4 hours. The nose had lots of sweet dark fruit, wrapped in creamy chocolate and earth. The palate had the same dark fruit as the nose and some dark chocolate. It finished with some earth and a little spice.

Like viscous ink in the glass. Good nose of dark fruit, earth and oak. Lush mouthfeel, decent structure and tannins.
