Tasting notes
Reviewed by: Stephen Tanzer
Bright, deep red. Very ripe aromas of cherry, mocha and licorice. Suave and vibrant on the palate, with noteworthy energy to its flavors of black cherry, minerals and licorice. The very long finish features ripe tannins and lovely subtle persistence. Almost deceptively tastable today, but this should really be laid down.

(13.4% alcohol; not yet racked) Bright red-ruby. Black cherry, menthol, licorice, chocolate and espresso on the very ripe nose; I was reminded of Saint-Emilion. Then dense, concentrated and structured, but with the sweetness of the vintage. Finishes with substantial broad, dusty, building tannins.
