  Smells of graphite, blueberries, vanilla, and spice.
  Medium bodied and a little viscous, there is acid and a hint of alcohol up front, with blueberries, spice, and a mildly bitter woodsy note that finishes dry and mildly tannic.
  I appreciate that the wine is not overly fruited, and I don't even mind a simpler wine's virtues, but the perception of alcohol just diminishes my enjoyment of this wine tonight. (85 for my point loving friends)

  Tasty blue/dark fruit, eucalyptus, tobacco, and something savory or almost meaty on the nose. Medium body and well-balanced in the mouth. Slightly round on the finish. I'm guessing this is at or near its peak.

  Drinking great. Nice merlot/cab blend. Great even without food.

  Very nice wine typical Waters. Spicy yet mellow mix of cab & merlot. Dark fruit with a very smooth finish.
