Dark garnet-ish lightly glass-coating purple in the glass. Cassis, ash, and cigar box on the nose. Echoed on the palate with firm tannins and medium plus acidity. Long, dark tarry finish. New World fruit with an Old World ethos making it just as “food friendly” as wine is supposed to be, and still going strong thirteen and a half years on. I’m enjoying mine with beef stew in the aftermath of a classic nor’easter. Don’t wait for one in your region.

It doesn’t get much better than this. Perfectly aged, as promised 12 years ago, perfect for celebrating a Bills’ playoff victory.

Tight and one dimensional on opening. After a bit of breathing, it blossomed.
