Wednesday, December 11, 2013 - Decanted for 90 minutes.
Concentrated aroma of sweet cherries, with hint of chocolate and smoke. Very concentrated on the palate with silky dusty integrated tannins, a balancing sour cherry element and the merest touch of tar. Medium bodied and extremely elegant structure with good length.
I would say this wine was now at its peak and over the next couple of years. Excellent.
