Beautiful wine.  It has just about reached maturity but still has plenty of life left.  Purple in color, opaque and bright.  Great nose of cassis, cedar, graphite and char.  Full bodied.  Light to medium tannins.  Nice balance.  On the palate, this is delicious.  Flavors of cassis, chocolate, slight blueberries, spice and char.  Complex and deep.  Long finish.  This should drink well for another ten years before starting a slow decay.  It is great on its own and would work nicely with grilled meat dishes.
