Good medium red. Sexy dark cherry and mocha on the nose. Plump, silky and sweet, but with a slightly peppery, herbal quality that initially gave the wine a dry edge but blew off with air. Ultimately showed lovely roundness and breadth, with a perfumed flavor of fresh black cherry. Finishes sweet and impressively long, with ripe, broad tannins and lingering perfume. If you serve this wine anytime soon, be sure to give it a good aeration.
