Wow. Thought this was going to be over the hill. But this was great! Decanted for about 45 minutes, drank over next 90 minutes. Pencil/graphite aroma, with jammy cherries added on the palate. Oak and vanilla, with some dry tannins. Much fruitier than expected. Kept getting better.

Cassis and smoldering pencils pretty much sums this up. Drink now. Please, drink now. Let me know if you don't want to drink this now and I will come drink it....now!

This is an exquisite wine! Great bouquet, approachable, and long finish. You'd be well served by decanting it or waiting a couple of hous before drinking. I particularly liked the multilayer cherry explosion in the mouth.

Perfectly balanced. Wonderful wine. Let sit an hour before drinking. Kept getting better with each glass.
