    May 20, 2011 - PnP'd and tasted over 4 hours without much change in character. Medium ruby color, 90% saturated and long,slow legs. Vibrant nose of herbs and cassis with nice focus, medium intensity. Sweet and gripping tannins, generous acidity and a bit hot. Pure dark berry profile and a simple, medium length finish. Not very distinguishable as a Bdx blend, but a perfectly tasty daily drinker and an acceptable value. 5+10+15+7 = 87

    January 20, 2011 - Nose perhaps slightly flawed with cheesy mustiness. Underneath are some cherries and licorice. Mouth of blackberry, prunes and good height with a touch of bitterness. Finish of mixed berries and bonox that lasts for 45 seconds. Good with cheese.
