The wine looks garnet colored. The legs are medium. There is no sediment in the bottle. It smells like strawberry, and blackberry. It tastes like blackberry, black currant (cassis), blueberry and oak. The wine has leathery texture. The wine finishes medium. The wine has medium acidity.

Decanted in cellar for 3 hours, a delicious Bordeaux blend that expressed dark berry aroma and succulent flavors with very well balanced acidity and tannins on the finish.

Strong aroma of blackberry and black cherry, big fruit bomb leading to a seamless finish that lasts 45 seconds or longer. 15.5 alcohol, you would never know it from the wine. Wish I had bought more. $55 isn't cheap, but this bottle is worth every penny. Popped and poured at restaurant. Short cellaring potential, maybe 4-5 years, but fab right out of the bottle.

Same as last bottle, big hit at dinner, wine #1 for the evening. Like it even more at $40.
