Loose flowy tannins with a rich and lush mouthfeel. velvet mid palate with a molten chocolate weight complimented by a mint/eucalyptus tinge that disappears on the finish - yet leaves the palate sumptuously teased with cherries and blackberry and cassis and thirsting for more like a drunkard 30 minutes after the bar closes with only a whiff of smoked Oak..... or just a regular guy that enjoys life, likes wine, afterall it is his job, and loves to do spontaneous and fun things and wishes he could remember what it was like to say "Mom, I am bored"...
