"An extremely saturated dark purple color suggests a wine of formidable proportions. A tight but promising bouquet offers black-cherry, vanillin, and spicy/oaky scents. Ripe and full-bodied, with superb concentration, and layers of rich, opulent cassis fruit gently infused with toasty new oak, this long, lavishly rich wine possesses moderate yet unobtrusive tannin in the finish."
