Dark red color with a maroon hue and clear 3mm margin. PNP, drank 2 glasses over 2 hours. The nose shows cherry compote, black olive, threads of black raspberry and blue berry and hints of cherry bon bon. The palate offers a somewhat more rustic mix of red, blue and black fruits, gravelly minerals, dark cocoa, gravelly minerality and plenty of spice on a full bodied framework with coarse firm tannins. Very solid and old school style. 90-91pts.

From half bottle. Popped and poured. Slight Signs of seepage under the capsule. Red fruit (cherry, raspberry, slight blueberry), spice, tobacco, earth, good acidity. Lingering finish. Really enjoyable.

From .375 Dark fruit (cherry, black cherry), tannins, tobacco , slight leather, slight anise. Nice spice. Could probably use a few more years. Still really enjoyable.
