    April 15, 2012 - The color is deep ruby This wine has a lovely and captivating bouquet. It has a jammy blackberry, plum spice and vanilla aroma that was full and round and easy to just smell for a long time. Te wine is very viscous and has great long slow legs. The flavors are rich and soft for such a young wine..it is very pleasant to drink though I don't think it will age too well as the tannins are too soft in my view. I do find it engaging however. In addition to the blackberry there is tea and cedar along with vanilla/oak. Aftertaste is lingering for 20-30 seconds. Very nice wine that should be best over the next few years.

    If you drink this bottle right at opening you will never know what this wine is capable of.
