Sunday, November 20, 2011 - Nose with nice dark fruits but somewhat overwhelmed by oaky vanilla and chocolate. Palate is direct and matches nose, a little leather happening, nice silky mouthfeel, voluptuous but a bit fat and flabby and upfront with little going on mid-palate. Somewhat disappointing lack of depth, finish. Didn't open up after 3 hours in decanter, doubt there is more there. Not my style but a tasty wine - can't see it pairing with much on the table- but still a 88-90.
