TASTING NOTES: Delicate notes of plum, black currant, tobacco and leather lead the nose of this wine into aromas of cassis and leather surrounded by hints of wet stone. An elegant and medium-bodied entry begins to tempt the palate with flavors of cola, cocoa and caramel. Fine grained tannins surround notes of black truffle and blueberries that continue throughout a long roasty finish. REVIEWS: Rated 88 Tightly wound, with a mix of herb, sage, currant and plum flavors that are well balanced and complex. (Jim Laube) Wine Spectator October 15, 2003

- Delicate notes of plum, black currant, tobacco and leather lead the nose of this wine into aromas of cassis and leather surrounded by hints of wet stone. An elegant and medium-bodied entry begins to tempt the palate with flavors of cola, cocoa and caramel. Fine grained tannins surround notes of black truffle and blueberries that continue throughout a long roasty finish. Showy toasty oak dominates, but once past the smoke and vanilla, the green olive, plum and currant flavors are focused and well-balanced, with a long, persistent finish.Wine Spectator - July 31, 200189-91 Points: Barrel Tasting

- Delicious overall package of well-balanced red plum and cherry fruit, with lush spices and herbal notes that linger beautifully on the finish. Ready to drink now and over the next five years.
