Smoky nose over spicy fruit, warm berry jam with some cherry.Fresh in the mouth, fine tannin and a smooth mid-palate into an oaky finish with nice acidity. This is still drinking well. 87-88pts.

My 9th bottle of this since May 2006 and still exceptionally good, I was worried this may be past its best but a smoothness and fruitiness which is very enjoyable. Spicy Vanilla and cherry nose, strong wood undertones. Very well balanced in the mouth, 88-89pts.
