Stewed fruit, smoke (heavy toast) and oak on the nose. Awkward palate - smoky, a little vegetal with med heavy tannins. Probably needs another 4 - 5 years to soften tannins.

Forward, powerful, luscious. dark chocolate, toast, and crushed black fruit, with a savory/truffle touch on the finish, and plenty of grip and acidity. She puts out.

A plum colored, medium bodied wine with a nose of tobacco, smoke, plum and cherry with hints of florals. On the palate is tobacco, heavy oak, and hints of spice, blackberry and cherry and a finish with light anise and chocolate. 2010.
