Reviewed August 2011
Beautiful nose of ripe plums and sweet tobacco, follow through to a full body, with velvety tannins and a ripe finish. Extremely balanced and complex. Best after 2012.

*Cellar Selection* This inky wine opens with black concentration and rich aromas of mature cherry, almond paste, spice, blackberry and plum. Integrated wood tones of leather and toasted coffee complete the picture and help render soft but structured tannins. Drink after 2015.

Thick and concentrated, this extracted red exudes blackberry, plum, oak spice and tobacco flavors, all backed by excessive force, with a long aftertaste of black currant and bilberry. Needs time to tame the aggressive tannins. Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Petit Merlot and Cabernet Franc.
