  Though the nose is a bit muted, I get hints of dark fruit, earth, baking spice, grilled meats while the palate reveals a brighter red fruit with subtle notes of mocha and cola. Fruit dominates as the tannins are silky smooth. Lovely drinker.

  First sips were a bit tight but began drinking nicely after a 60 minute decant. Lots of black fruit and nice depth. Smooth tannins. Will wait another year for the next bottle.

  Good color , clarity and body. Soft upfront - has some nice berry and Cigar/tobacco flavors through the middle. The finish has a strong cigar finish which is nice!

  Nice color, body and clarity. Mouth Feel was round and soft. This is a straight forward wine - Light Fruit upfront through the end. Not complex but nice fruit.

  Inky Dark, Medium body, was a real nice wine with a pasta dinner. Good dark berry flavors and a little vanilla. Not real complex just a real good drink.
