Clear, still violet and deep with a huge color extract. Bit of sediment in the bottle. The nose was medium (+) and developing with notes of plum, licorice, dark cherry, dark chocolate and mocha. Dry, medium acidity and medium (+) tannins, alcohol, intensity, body and finish. Nice wine, but needs decanting before drinking.

Garnet in the glass, neutral nose, tart cherry on the palate hint of earth on short finish. Simple.

Deep fruit but with a very slight medicinal finish which I think will smooth out with shelf time Wouldn't open another till at least 2014.
