Dark purple in the glass with a black core. Blackberry, cocoa, and cassis on the nose and palate. Full body. Medium acidity. Medium tannins. Probably on the downward trend, but still a satisfying drink.

Beautifyl dark color with no bricking, nose of blackberry, plum & bramble, very tight body and never opened up with tight somewhat bitter finish. Apparently waited too young as there is no fruit left to come forward when exposed to air

Sad to see my last bottle go. This has been drinking so well since 2011.
Still presents a tremendous amount of fresh blackberry

An interesting blend of Malbec merlot and CS plus others. Have kept this for several years and it definitely aged well. Good fruit and nose. Big wine.
