March 13, 2016 - cassis, herbs, and lots of red pepper. very cabernet, without the trimmings of sweet oak. 12.5%. nice wine and held up very well for 20 years, but a bit simple.

May 4, 2014 - A great surprise.
Not decanted, uncorked 2 hours in advance (opened the neck)
Eyes: Garnet red with medium legs
Nose: a mix of mature fruit, dark berries followed by tobaco and liqorice. Tertiary notes perfectly blending with evolved fruit scents.
Mouth: Incredibly youthfull with a vivid acidity, well integrated tannins that are still present
An elegant wine, well balanced and ideal with grilled red meat. A good life ahead!
This wine is a heartbreaker... I have one left but I'm already tryinng to gather more.
