Deep and woodsy on the nose, with lots of pine, forest floor and truffle overlapping a layer of rich dark fruit. Perhaps a touch of a raisiny note as well. The palate is a lush blend of juicy black cherries and raspberries, along with sweet spices and a creamy texture. There is an excellent balance between acid and the still prevalent tannins. A well made wine and one for the cellar. August 17, 2006
