Jen’s Notes

An expansive nose of classic, earthy Bordeaux aromas. A deeply colored, full-bodied wine. It was well-aged at this point, and could probably be cellared for another two years or so. Integrated tannins, chewy, complex. The black fruit flavors were spiked with tart cherry notes and peppery spices, as well as leather and tobacco underneath. The wine finished long with a pleasant aftertaste.
