description: This Bordeaux blend needs some air to shed it's slightly reductive aromas, but then bursts into vivid life with succulent, sweet raspberry/cherry fruit, nicely supported with tangy acids and firm, ripe, well-rounded tannins. The streak of smoke and licorice in the finish remains compact and bound, but suggests that as this lovely bottle ages it will reveal more and more elegant layers.
