Deep color, some fading at the rim. The nose shows deep aromas of raspberry, flowers, underbrush, oak, and a hint of spices. This is medium full bodied on the palate with outstanding concentration and amazing class. The long finish features some prominent oak notes and integrated tannins.

Brilliant ruby in color. Initially, the nose is sophisticated, pure, and refined. On the palate, this is medium full showing good energy and density, with an elegant richness. Finished with excellent length and class. After a few minutes, the tannins clamped down hard on the back end, rendering this very hard to taste.

Deep ruby/red. Black cherry, grass and slight animal on the nose. This is tight, structured and not telling much today. There seems to be a powerful core of goodness, but this really isn't a lot of fun today. Only real quibble is that the concentration and depth are don't seem to be where they could be. Maybe outstanding with time, but tough as nails today. (87+?)

Good cherry. Just a little sour for my taste.
