Red/black cherry and plums. Good silky texture with notes of dark chocolate, violets and toasty oak. Smooth tannins, long finish. At 20+ years of age this is in a great spot to drink right now.

Sampled 8/12/11. Smooth but with a little alcohol burn. Rich body wtih alcoholic black cherries. Some bing cherries too. Long finish, surprisingly long. Without the alcohol it could be a 92 pointer.

Another Saturday at Knightsbridge - mostly blind (Northbrook, IL): Tasted double blind. Plum, cassis aromas. Firm black fruit on palate with lots of acidity and tannins.

Too sweet. Vague flavors. Nothing special in any way.

beaetiful red fruits with nice complexity and layering. Not the overwheling gummy bear of a wine i was expecting. Delicous and drinking very well.
