Friday, February 8, 2008 - Decanted 45 min. 90;85Very thick looking with dark core, color all the way out and a thick coating on the glass. Nose a bit reticent but with coaxing it shows spice, rich black currant with smoke and licorice. In the mouth it is thick but a bit hard right now (opened up a bit later).Excellent balance - great T'nA and ample sweetness. Firm exit. Aftertaste has huge chocolate factor (55%). Licorice, dark Tahitian vanilla. Very long, sweet, dark smoke, caramel. Maybe a bit woody on the aftertaste. This wine is not quite integrated and smooth yet but we'll see in a year or two.
