Opaque ruby. Pungent dark berries and cherry-vanilla on the nose. Lush and creamy on the palate, offering pliant blackberry and boysenberry flavors and showing no rough edges. Offers very good depth for the vintage and finishes on a licorice note, with very good, smoky length.

(70% new oak) Inky ruby. Powerfully scented for a 2008, showing cherry-cola, cassis and vanillin oak qualities. Lush, pliant dark berry and candied violet flavors verge on liqueur-like and are framed by velvety tannins. Picks up a smoky note with air and finishes with lingering sweetness and echoes of cola and flowers.
