It made me think of a berry Forrest that was consumed in an obtrusive oak, with a little more age this should turn unique all in itself. That's said I tried the 2005 decanted for hours, the oak shines through too much the good news is blueberry and plum with toasted oak notes quickly turned to blackberry baked plum not to mention hints of eucalyptus. All in all a tasty young wine, got one more 05 will see where it's at in 30 the oak will have integrated in too something unique...
