Decanted 30 minutes. Tosses a lot of sediment, so stand it up a few days in advance and then decant. Deep inky red colour. Sheets the glass when you swirl, then forms slow, thick, teardrop legs.

Very powerful nose with vanilla, cream, oak, blackberry, cassis, raspberry, and black olive aromas.

Full-bodied, with lush dark fruits that replay from the nose. Pepper and earthy notes come out with a bit of time. Delicious, lush finish with pepper and blackberry. Drinking really well right now. 91 points. (12/20/2003).

A steal at $23CAD. Too bad it was my last bottle! :sad:
