  December 30, 2013 - Brown Bag Wine Dinner at Two Chefs (TWO CHEFS, MIAMI, FL): The wine looks Inky colored. The legs are Slow. It smells like Black currant (cassis), Prune, Espresso, Nutmeg, and Molasses. The body is Full. The wine has Smooth texture. The wine finishes Long. Geoff's wine. I preferred this to the Reserve.

  February 3, 2008 - Color is very nice with some brownish purple and dark red tones. Obvious nose of vanilla, chocolate cake, and rasberry syrup. Very large and mouthcoating on the palate with flavors as above and other more earthy coffee tones as well. Tannins are just enough to cut through the sweetness of this wine and the finish is long and floral. Not really a fan of dessert wines, but this is worth ordering more.
  Overall, this was different and excellent.
  5+13+17+8=93

  December 31, 2007 - The nose on this dessert wine does not tell the whole story. The primary nose is of cocoa and coffee. But when you sip it the raspberry and black cherry jump out at you. This is a wonderful wine to have after a dinner of red meat and anything heardy like stews etc. Give it a try, chances are you have never experienced this flavor.
