Love the label! A deep dark ruby red color. A sweet age cab nose filled with blackberry plum floral spice, crushed rock, a funky cedar, and floating scents of smoky sandalwood, currants and forest floor aromas. Taste is beautiful and layered. Savory notes of black cherry and plum, graphite, cedar, minerals, spice black licorice and a long chocolate espresso finish. Can’t wait to see how it opens up throughout the evening after a 1 hour decant. Must try—yummy!!!’

1 hour decant(some fine/cloudy sediment). A majestic dark ruby red color. On the nose: black fruit, currants, smoke, some sweet aged cab perfume, forest floor, pine. Taste: smooth, soft, rich medium plus body wine with black cherry/plum, graphite, minerals, cedar, spicy black licorice, and a long chocolate espresso finish. Drinks great, pop one if you got em....or wait, should have a number of years left.
