Moderate concentration, moderate minus staining. Juicy black plums, blackberry, apricot, black pepper, purple flowers, some new oak notes but relatively subdued. Tight and firm medium tannin. Medium to medium plus acidity and body.

This could use a heavy decant. Great tannins, tobacco, soy sauce, slate. I like this more the more it opens up. Some blackberry, maybe a note of plum.

A nice melody of mixed red and dark cherries, some raspberry. Followed by an earthy and slightly acidic backbone. There are hints of tobacco. Medium tannin. Very good.

On the nose, black fruit and earthy. On the palate, acidic, high tannin, black fruit finish.

1.5 L bottle. I made the mistake of decanting this one for a few hours. Deep ruby color. Aromas of raspberry, violets and cedar. Flavors fell flat- some red and black fruit, quickly fades to the cedar. Just ok.

Opens with red fruits, which evolve to classic aromas of cassis, earth, and leather. Red and black fruits on the palate, but lacking some of the depth of better vintages. Finishes with black fruits and dry, but smooth tannins.
3/20/8/4/3 +50 = 88 pts
