Creme d'cassis, licorice, graphite, black cherry, blueberry and black tea aromas and flavors. Full bodied, the palate fans out elegantly over the palate. The wine is concentrated, persistent but without the weight the heady nose suggests, especially for a 2003.

Holding up well, the ripeness of the vintage comes trough, but with mature elegance as opposed to youthful power. Camphor, black raspberry, charcoal, currants in layers of complexity.
