So well done, from beginning to end. The nose offers a good balance of beef, cherry, plum and black pepper notes. On the palate, it’s mouthwatering, medium sized and moderately oaked—that is, there’s no caramel or toast in sight. Focused; flavors of black cherry, blackberry, eucalyptus and black pepper are mouthwatering, and the tannins smooth. Imported by Wilson Daniels Ltd.——D.T.(10/1/2005)—— 91
