Deep dark red. Decanted for an hour and then poured through venturi. Lots of floral notes in the nose, weird but I also sense playdough, which actually is a nice nostalgic smell from childhood. Rich tasting wine. Cherry, raisin, black pepper. Long finish. Very enjoyable and worth every penny.

Matured in French oak and bottled for 5 years, Aromas of plums, blueberries and figs. Flavors of spice and clove. Deep red wine that has held up well with age and is very smooth.

An easy afternoon with close friends (@ PdV): In the bouquet red berries, herbs and spices, some smoke and oak. Intense bouquet. Same impressions on the palate, dark berries, plums, chocolate and firm but good acidity. Beautiful wine.

The nose is prominently tobacco with notes of vanilla and blueberry. The nose is VERY inviting. It tastes like red currant, tobacco, vanilla and lingering cherry on the finish. Elevated acidity, which makes it good food pairing wine. The wine looks garnet colored. The legs are medium. There is light sediment in the bottle.

Fantastic wine: great complexity, especially given the price point. Cherry, plum, sous bois, leather. Will buy again.
