Deep burgundy color. Aromas of black cherry, iron and earth foreshadowed same on the palate. Spiced finish. Rich, but not over-ripe. Well-judged. This was the classic case of an iron fist inside a velvet glove. This was super, but will probably be even better in another 15 years. This was a classic. 95

Primary color. Smoky aromas draw you in. This moved around a lot. I caught dark cherry to start and then blackberry interwoven with creme de cassis and lead pencil on the finish. Demi sweet. Concentrated and mouth coating. Silky texture. Outstanding and still with some finely embedded tannins. This will run in a good place for a long time. Drink or hold. 94
