April 19, 2012 - I like the direction this has gone in. Dense, chewy with enough depth and richness to carry it. Nose is spot on for this with black fruits ruling. Black cherry, cassis, framboise and more. I get some cola, and some un-cola. :)
Ok, that's a stretch, but the rest is the real deal; Palate brings some purity, structure and a hint of elegance is starting to pop on this. Black fruits with black-cherry and framboise leading the charge. Theres some black plum pumice, cedar and slight lead pencil shavings here. Balance is very admirable and tannings still somewhat chewy. Finish remains true to all before it. Can't go wrong with this one. Wish I could give it a Ninety ONE POINT FIVE.5,538 views
