Big red with dark fruits. A bit of an unusual nose, kinda licoricey.

2003 Vintage. A little past its prime (maybe two years). Still has a nice nose and good, velvety tannins. However, fades quickly. Jammy flavors have mellowed, but still starts off strong with spicy flavor. Deep red/garnet color. Finished after letting it evolve over a few hours: more fruit on the palate, and the finish was longer than before.
