Sumptuous. Acid up front, more silky on the long finish. Starts with blackberry, with lots of earthiness. Slight pencil on the end. Drinking well now (after long decant) but probably has a few years left.

Good fruit and acid, nice structure. Plum with a hint of tobacco. Really good for the price point.

Black cherry and plum. Hint of licorice. Velvety texture. nice acid. Drinks well now but may develop more complexity with age.
