Dark purple in color with a deep rich nose of black cherry, plum, chocolate, mint and black pepper. Very viscous and structured wine with lots of flavorful aromas; however, it's difficult to find them on the palate battling with the high alcohol level. I did find a strong molasses and vanilla quality on the palate however. Great nose, but hidden palate. August 6, 2007

The nose on this wine is it's best quality with anise, meat, mint, clove and mixed raspberry aromas. In the mouth this is a big wine with thick acidity and unctuous qualities. Black liquorice, molasses, black pepper and chocolate lead me to believe that this could be a very fun wine. But the alcohol seems to get in the way of the fruit and other fun flavors. Mixed emotions on this one, and overall I think it's worth trying. August 6, 2007
