"This wine is garnet-ruby colored in the glass, with a pale violet-colored meniscus. In the bouquet there are aromas of red plum, new car leather and ripe cherry, with flavors of dried herbs, cedar, tobacco leaf, and ripe red and black fruits. The tannins are silky, the mouthfeel is round and generous, and the finish goes on for days. Drink through 2042. - Mike DeSimone"
