A 1.5 hour decant probably should have gone longer(fine/cloudy sediment). A sensational inky dark garnet color. On the nose: perfumed notes of dark cherry, creme brulee, cinnamon, wet forest floor, minty tea. Taste: velvety and smooth mouth coating wine with Brambly blackberry, graphite, herbaceous, mocha, and a spicy glycerin cedar finish. YUM! The family reserve gets an extra 12 months in barrel versus the Private Reserve. This Oakville fruit wine has more time to go and glad I have a few more bottles.
