  September 27, 2016 - My only bottle of this. A youthful-looking, completely opaque, dark purple in color - lightening only very slightly at the edge. Lots of sediment, so a decanting is recommended. Gorgeous, complex aromas of crushed dark fruits, earth, spice and flowers fill the glass. Full-boded, rich and mouth-filling. Despite its age, still shows plenty of tangy, delicious plum and sour cherry fruit, with excellent depth and intensity. Very long and slightly chewy on the juicy, lip-smacking finish. Modern in style, but not over-done. A big wine, yet nicely balanced and shows a surprising amount of finesse and elegance. Really delicious and so satisfying. Drinks like a Sette Ponti Oreno, at half the price. Should have bought more of this.

  March 25, 2015 - Cherry, hint of tobacco and dried plums, deep garnet color medium plus viscosity, still has some time. Interesting mix of fresh and dried fruit.

  January 25, 2015 - Dark in color with moderate fine sediment. Blackberry,vanilla notes on nose. With sufficient air time, the oakiness subsides, leaving bull bodied wine with black cherry flavors.
