May 16, 2010 - Subdued nose. Soft, plummy fruit on the palate. Smooth and succulent but hardly elegant. No length or complexity, but perfectly good every day drinking now but has potential to develop further over the next couple of years.

February 8, 2010 - Clear dark ruby.
Clean nose, but restrained. Some black fruit. Also plum. Touch of cigar box.
Dry. Medium/light tannins. Medium acidity. Medium body. Medium length.
It's a nice wine but I want more. Feels too merlot dominated. Too soft. It is silky though.
