Decanted approx one hour. Aromas of cassis, black currants, licorice, violets and spice. Hint of vanilla too. Medium-bodied; has some tannin to integrate yet. Flavors of cherry, black fruit, licorice and spice. Has a subtle floral quality too. Medium(+) finish.

Deep inky garnet color with aromas of tar, loam, blackberry, currants and plum. Full-bodied, with black cherry, pomegranate and boysenberry flavors. Chalky tannins and red fruit flavors dominate the finish. After an hour in the decanter, the tar and loam notes fade into the background a bit, letting the rich red fruit stand out.

Popped & poured. Inky garnet color. Notes of blackberry, black currants, herbs and florals. Flavors of red fruit and herbs, raspberry. Tannins are slightly chalky. Nice fruit through the finish. Outstanding value.

4th Saturday Group brown bagger (Rick's & Cris'): Red fruit and plum notes follow through on the palate. Earthy undertones.
