Tasting notes
Bright ruby-red. Aromas of black raspberry, licorice, menthol and sexy oak. Savory and deep, conveying a juicy quality and spicy high notes to the flavors of purple berries and flowers. This energetic wine finishes very long, with substantial fine-grained tannins and intense notes of blackberry and boysenberry. Showing little in the way of animal character today as the fruit dominates.

Deep, bright red. Expressive, slightly wild nose combines black raspberry, mocha, game and spices, plus complex hints of vegetable matter and burning cinders. Supple, silky and classically dry on the palate but not yet delivering the complexity or definition promised by the nose. Most impressive today on the rising finish, where the spicy purple fruit and violet flavors have a chance to expand before serious, ripe tannins make their presence felt.
Dark crimson. Savoury, leathery nose and lots of substance underneath. This is really something to chew on. Serious long-term stuff. (JR)
