  January 1, 2015 - Dark red colour.
  On the nose there's oak and fudge mixed with wet leaves. Softening tannines and cherry and nice lengthy finish of the palate.

  December 31, 2014 - Dark red colour.
  Red berries and autumn leaves on the nose at first, but the longer in the glass it turns into oak and vanilla fudge that take's over. Yet, nice austere palate showing tannines and cherry with nice length.
