Feb 27th, 20141.5 hour decant(decent fine/cloudy sediment). A majestic dark ruby red color with a little bricking. On the nose: beautiful notes of plum, anise, smoke, vanilla, sandlewood, and a touch of tobacco. Taste: smooth, creamy, rich wine with a little black cherry, currants, mocha, spice, balsamic, toasty oak, and a long plumy graphite dry finish. YUM! Gonna be a wonderful Saturday night.
