Excellent wine.  Purple in color.  The nose has cassis, chocolate and spice.  On the palate, slight tannins.  Really delicious.  Deep.  Plenty of cassis fruit, some dark cherries and a bit of milk chocolate.  Nice finish.  Has a decade or two of life left.  

 

Revisited on 10/26/18.  This is singing along.  Notes consistent with a year ago.  Still tannic and tight but with a lot of potential.
