  January 2, 2015 - Medium garnet in color with ever-so-slight clearing at the edges. Full, forward & fragrant nose of well developed, mature & complex, ripe fruit aromas of cherries, strawberries & raspberries with an initial funky notes of Madera & barnyard which dissipated with airing, eventually developing into lovely floral notes, ginger spice, beefy, leather, earthiness, caramel, dusty, some garrigue notes, underbrush, dried Provençal herbs and minerals. Medium bodied with a good concentration of balanced, smooth textured, well developed, mature & complex ripe red fruit flavors of cherries, raspberries & strawberries with spices, peppery, black tea, iron notes, herbs & minerals. Lingering dry finish. Drinks quite well at present and may be headed towards the downward portion of its development, so drink it up!
