This light to medium bodied wine has integrated to aged notes of raspberry and red currant compote as well as violets, plentiful wood notes and subtle vanilla aromas. Tannins are tannic (decant for half to one hour) and the finish is medium to long. It has the potential to age for 5 to 10 more years, but the fruit will disappear, so drink now. The finish is medium to long and quite metallic. This wine is to be consumed with food - not really a sipper. My impression: NICE, 88.5 pts - if you like tannic, aged wines, this one is for you. Tasted June/10.

Plums, pepper, and herbs on the nose. The wine has matured very well and the tannins are soft while the fruit has not dried out. Well balanced - taste more expensive than the price suggests. Drink now.

Feb 11 and 12, 2011 - bit on the fruity side as far as aroma, but nice finish
