This wine has a bright, medium-to-dark ruby color and a delightfully elegant and fresh nose of violets, roses, blueberries, and cherries. It explodes on the palate with layered and deeply ripe black cherries, mocha, and toasted oak flavors. This feminine, refined, medium-to-full-bodied, and silky wine also possesses a formidably long and supple finish. Drink it between 2002 and 2008.
