  Barrel: Heavy toast. Garnet color with aromas of blueberry and rose petals. Smooth, fine tannins, with flavors of red currant, black cherry and spice. $85. 91+.
  
  We then also tasted this wine from a Missouri u-stave barrel with medium toast. Aromas of spice, red currant and black cherry with flavors of red fruit and spice. 91 pts.

  Excellent. good as I remembered. smooth and soft and buttery. Deep, dark and rich. Not too fatty. really opened up after an hour or so; had with steak . will drink well for years, but good now with decanting.
