Decanted, DARK purple red color, modest sediment, initial nose is smaller earthy….needs to breath, tight and light tannin with some grape and cherry, clearly is going to open, fill mouth and linger in throats (hints of cherry, dark fruit there) - but did not happen, 50 minutes later - little earthy in nose with grape blend smoothly filling the mouth but earthy underneath, sadly our bottle of wine is not like the others with notes. The earthiness underlies the flavor and no fruit or berry elements appear. The wine is smooth and full but not what it should be.

Deep, dark and intense wine. Dark fruit, smoke, fig, olive. Nicely balanced between fruit, spice and acid although some more tannin structure would have been nice. Overall, very very good stuff.

- Brick color with slow forming legs and aromas of blackberry, black currant and black pepper. It's balanced and has flavours of black pepper, blackberry, black currant and fig with a medium/full body. Polished texture with a long finish.
