The nose had lots of graphite and plum, a little red currant, and some toasted oak at the end. The palate was very soft, and had pencil lead, licorice, plum, and a creamy oak finish.
The nose had plum and cherry, some leather and mocha, and quite a bit of tobacco at the end. The palate had firm tannins and a lot of dark fruit. Underneath was chocolate and tobacco, and it had a good plum finish.
The nose had blueberry and spice, some barnyard, and a little smoke at the end. The palate was rich with good tannic grip. It had some floral notes mixed with spice, and blueberry pie. It finished with a nice hit of smoke.

The nose had loads of toasted oak and smoke. There was also some plum and blackberry. The palate was slightly tannic, with blackberry, plum, smoke, and a very oaky finish.
The nose had black cherry and blackberry, and just a touch of smoke. The palate was acidic and tannic. It had cherry, blackberry and spice. I really didn't like this wine.
