Light garnet, a little bricking at the rim. This has an amazingly complex and aromatic nose. Definite notes of smoked meat, coffee, chinese five spice, tomato ketchup and polished wood accompany sweet underlying blackberry fruit. Medium bodied with good acidity and smooth integrated tannins. Beautiful balance in the mouth. Rich, defined flavours of leather, blackcurrant, coffee, dark chocolate and bacon fat. Evolves on the palate and lingers in the throat for minutes. Fabulous.

The color showed its age but the nose and palate were still very primary. Not nearly the barnyard flavor/nose that I recall from the 89. Not bad, but certainly not the wine I was hoping. In a dumb phase?
