We used plenty of adjectives to describe this wine’s flavors, but few had anything to do with fruit. An unlikely flavor pairing, black olive and cinnamon, dominates the bouquet and the palate. Leather and meat aromas flesh out the nose, and clove and coffee (plus a little blackberry) spice up the palate. Medium-long tannin and mineral finish.——W.E.(11/1/2001)—— 86
