Opaque purple-colored, the wine has a fabulous perfume of violets and lavender as well grilled meat, game, and blueberry compote. Dense, powerful yet elegant, this splendid effort demands a decade of cellaring...
This one glows with plum and spice aromas, then gets serious on the palate with layers of tar, molasses and coffee to meld with the plum and cherry flavors. The finish shows subtlety, and lingers and lingers. 288 cases made.
Musky, complex nose melds raspberry, smoke, fresh herbs and gunflint. Finishes long and fat, with smooth, sweet tannins and terrific breadth.
