Red ruby color. Very Bordeaux nose- currants, vanilla, wood spice, plums and a big dose of wet-earth and graphite. Medium weight palate with spicy currants, earthy and soil inflected palate with good acidity. The wine good much better the second day with the fruit showing more expressively. Nice wine, made in a Bordeaux style.

Ruby red color. Very Bordeaux nose, black currants, earth, smoked herbs, vanilla and smoke. Full bodied, with black currants, plums, a big dose of wet-earth, leather and charcoal on the finish. The wine got even better the second day, with a strong currant liqueur and earthy nose and palate. Very, very nice showing for this wine, but it is decidedly in the Bordeaux camp.

From magnum, crimson colored. Smells like strawberry jam, red currant, bark, lead pencil, and tobacco. On the palate, plum, strawberry, red currant, vegetal, medium toast, dusty tannins, and prominent oak. Resolved tannins. Bright, medium bodied, medium finish. Overall: less fruit, more oak/herbaciousness.
