Sour cherry on the nose, plus cedar and spice underneath, and a hint of perfume and rose petals at the end. Very fruit on the palate, but with a nice earth backbone. The finish was all flowers and perfume.
Tobacco and cherry on the nose, with all spice and cinnamon in the middle, and some black raspberry at the end. The palate is rich with dark fruit. The earth flavors come on in the middle and it finishes with lots of spice.
Rich dark fruit on the nose, with spice and earth flavors behind. Dark and creamy on the palate, this wine is very big. dark fruit, lots of oak, and some spice.
Floral and spicy on the nose, with nice hints of citrus and tropical fruit. Rich and creamy on the palate, the spicy and floral tones are surrounded by nice citrus fruit.
The nose has loads of mushroom and mint, mixed with espresso and olives. There's a bit of dark fruit at the end, but the nose is all earth flavors. The palate is much like the nose. All earth flavors with just a touch of fruit. I like it.

Minerals and dark fruit on the nose, with forest floor and cinnamon in the middle, and some sour cherry at the end. Tart cherry on the palate, with earthy and spice behind, and a pleasant dark fruit finish.

Rich and creamy on the nose, with lots of dark fruit, a little spice. Much the same on the palate. It's tasty, but one dimensional.
