Best carm I've ever had. Trip down memory lane. We decanted and all you could smell at first was pencil led/gun powder and after 45 minutes I got molasses. Wonderful body.

v08. Beautiful wine. Deeeeep purple color. Candied berries and smoke meat nose. Opens with fresh black currant and cassis and then drops into rich plum. Smooth, somewhat tight and chalky, chocolate finish. So good!!!

v09. One of my favorites...Very Good! Deep purple color. Dusty, candied black cherry and smoked meat nose. Rich, thick, juicy black currant and tar fruit. Smooth, slightly tight, leather finish. Nicely balanced. Will pair well with any rich decadent food!
