A generous gift from JW to commemorate the birth of my first daughter.

Blackberry, pencil lead, cassis on the nose. Some petrol notes are present but mostly blow off after an hour. Flavors of blackberry, raspberry, and blackberry liquer with a long finish. It's a bit hot, but a strong showing for the vintage.

Drink now or enjoy over the next 10 years.

4/23/9/4/4 +50 = 94 pts.

Nope, 2 girls. We don't get to choose, but I feel very blessed nonetheless.
