  December 24, 2011 - The last of 4 bottles and the best. How often does that seem to happen? Opened and tasted and finding the acids prominent set the bottle aside to find its balance.
  After an hour: Lovely aromas of violets and cherry plums with nuances of smoked meat, earth, herbs and licorice. Fresh and dried cherries and dried cranberries mix with herbs and smoke on the palate. Loads of inner mouth perfume. Sleek, smooth and almost dense without weight. The fruit sweetness and a nectar-violet quality carry through the entire taste from fore to finish with nuances of earth and herbs and meatiness. Delicious wine that certainly is at its peak, but I would not mind having a few more to check on down the road!
