Tasting Notes:
Subtle and powerful all in one bountiful, balanced and structured wine.  Somewhat young at heart and could/would benefit from additional cellaring.  Nose presented with notes of berry, cherry, herbs and earthiness.  Integrated tannins
lead into a fruit explosion as this wine was tasted.  The finish was smooth, moderate in length and complete with a rich earthiness lingering.
