Nose has nice notes of leather, plum and spice. Palate has pomegranate and raisin, dark chocolate and some minor cherry. Finishes well, with a balance of tannin. Feels likes its drinking well now, but wouldn't wait any longer.

Dark spices and fruit on the nose, deep cassis and leather on the palate. Hearty tannins with moderate terroir. Had with beef tenderloin after decanting for 20 minutes. Incredible.

Medium purple color. A bit of rose petal on the nose. Dark fruit, plum and raisin on the palate with a touch of eucalyptus. Pleasant but a bit astringent on the finish. I suspect this might be better in a couple of years. It was a nice accompaniment to a robust New York Strip but is fairly overpowering by itself.

Fruit is on its last leg but still decent. Wish I wound have popped this one a few years prior.
