Decanted this. At first, pretty restrained, not a lot of excitement. After about an hour it exploded with aroma and flavor. Was really quite impressive.

Nicely perfumed with black cherry, vanilla, and a bit of graphite. Flavorful black cherry dominates the palate. Medium bodied with soft tannins. Very typical new world style.

A whole lotta fruit, a little sweeter than I remember but I enjoyed it quite a bit. Not really Cab Francesque but me likey.
