Huge dark fruit on the nose. I cannot believe the fruit smells on a wine this old. It is well balanced. Let it breath for an hour before drinking. Smells also of fresh tennis balls. It has a little life left. Great wine. Great vineyard.

Ruby red with nice legs. Whiff of spice and cigar box on the nose with strong dark berry permeating. A medium body with blend of cassis, blackberry, pepper and vanilla, and a hint of toast on the end. Acidity on the light end as well. Lighter finish than expected but a surprisingly long after. Opened up well in the glass and is ready to drink. I think it will still last well for another few years in the bottle, but probably not much more than that.
