dark ruby body, orange rim, in the color. dried fruit, berry, slight oxidization, on the nose. soy, earth, tar, dried soil, green vegetables, on the palate. medium+ acid, low tannins, on the finish.

Offeing a very evolved nose with it's classic notes of dried cherry and earthy spice this is pretty to smell if note overly complex. On entry there is an explosion of sweet fruit balanced by racy acidity and a wonderful, slightly astringent edge. This remains fruity with notes of currant and citrus dominated the midpalate and a simple, slightly astringent finish. Certainly a crowd pleaser and deliciously at peak but I wouldn't wait any longer 2008-2010.

Still solid. Could go another 1-2 years.
