Nose of black cherry, dry, dusty earth, black berry, black currants, and hint of saddle leather, more of the same on the palate, big body, very tasty, time to enjoy is now as it's past the peak, mouth filling fruit, opened the first 30 minutes, lovely, rich fruit, bigger body than the Corton Bressandes today, long finish.
