Notes
-----
This is the second time I've had the opportunity to enjoy
this wonderful wine.  Unlike the first bottle which had a
very low shoulder, this bottle was in prestine condition
with a full fill.  The cork, though soaked, was in great
shape upon opening.  A medium bodied wine with a dark ruby
color and some lightening on the edges.  Straight out of the
bottle, the nose was powerful with aromas of tobacco,
minerals, and black fruit.  Somewhat dense on the palate,
but not extracted, flavors of blackberry, black currant, tar
with a hint of plum.  An incredible finish seeming to last
30+ seconds.
