Drank 2\16\21
A great example of a decent wine in an excellent vintage.
Scent of plum, tobacco, mint, and leather. Flavors of blackberry, black cherry, earth, and a bit of pepper, with medium tannins that have softened and are well integrated at this point. Finish lasts around 50 seconds. Very enjoyable, but drink now before the fruit fades.
3\21\8\4\4 +50 = 90 pts.
