March 25, 2011 - Dark red color, on nose many red berries and coffee notes on the background. Was decanted for half an hour which improved the nose and the taste. Strong but round and with a long finish.

January 29, 2011 - Deep dark purple red color. On the nose I get cherry and strawberry and lots of chocolate with more than a hint of oak on the end. On the palate I get more cherry and raspberry and on the mid palate some nice chocolate. On the finish there is a noticeable oakiness finishing with descent tannins. The mouth feel of this wine is thick and juicy and the finish lingers but I just cant get past that oak. I do like this wine and for the price its good. Fruity and juicy but just a little too much wood.
