Good flavour, flat finish with mild funk. Good with simple dishes on a Monday. Robert Parker was generous giving this a 90.

Expanded to fill the shape of the glass into which it was poured without complaint; made me feel better about myself; excellent companion to work that has to be done on sundays or children that won’t be quiet.

Medium-deep ruby color.
Aromas of black stewed fruit, browned butter, cinnamon.
Dry. Flavors of cassis, buttered brioche, vanilla, licorice, raspberry compote, cinnamon. Rich, velvety tannins. Yum!

Intensity: 5/5
Complexity: 3/5
Balance: 4/5
Finish: 4/5

Sweeter than anticipated. Lovely depth, strong fruit, moderate alcohol, opened up during dinner. Paired well with BBQ lamb and fresh spinach.
