A cool and restrained nose displays a pretty mix of essence of black cherry, cassis, violet, spice and earth aromas. There is a sophisticated palate impression to the concentrated and powerful big-bodied flavors where once again this sense of refinement is enhanced by the dense but fine tannins that shape the powerful, focused and brilliantly long finish. This is positively Zen-like in its sense of harmony though make no mistake this is built-to-age and it's going to need it.
