On the nose I get aromas of cherry, rust, tomato sauce, tobacco, tea leaf, leather, and some very attractive plum notes. As you might imagine, this wine is rapidly fading in color and is full of red brick tones, turning slightly brownish. The flavors are soft and quite seductive showing notes of cherry, tea leaf, tea berry, and lots of tobacco. There is also some nice milk chocolate that creeps in on the cherry and red apple filled finish. The tannins are well integrated but amazingly enough still grip down on the mid-palate. The finish is medium in length but very enjoyable. 91 points
