This wine was really quite stunning with full and sumptuous rich plum, jammy blackberry fruit and soft French vanillin oak. Dry cocoa tannins and dark roasted coffee complete the long and lush fruity finish.

Spicy bouquet and spicy on the taste... Cherries and some pepper. Extremely smooth and yummy. Drinks perfectly now (may 2012), but I think will hold for a couple more years well.

Rich, focused, somewhat candied, but a good wine bursting with flavors of marzipan and ripe apple.

In the palate and nose was a 10! beatiful and rich aromes so delightful that mouth gets nervously but fall a little in a somehow short taste and finish. Maybe is starting to show the age...so drink it soon.
