May 19, 2013 - A wine that exudes pure pleasure with intoxicating rich aromas that it dispenses, plums, blackberries, blueberries, mocha, coffee, sweet tobacco, leather, black tea, violets, incense, and crushed stones. On the eye it still struts some of its youth exhibiting a dark opaque core with violet hued rims, very dense and slightly viscous appearance is also noticeable. Rich mouth coating flavors of sweet plums, blueberries, blackberries, black cherries that lead to a broad mid-palate dominated by milk chocolate, roasted coffee, licorice, with some fine grained tannins starting to show. The finish is quite long and elegant, although dominated by fine grained tannins, it has sweet dark fruits, spices, and minerality hiding in there somewhere. A hedonistic wine that isn't too heavy, it has elegance and subtleties as well as a delicious factor.
