Beautiful nose... cassis, hints of cab franc (8% in the blend) give this beautiful aromatics. In the mouth, medium bodied, silky feel (SLD all the way), ripe black currants, a hint of wood. The finish was a bit on the dry side, keeping this from being a totally raving review. However, I believe that the WS missed it on this one... much better than an 88 or whatever they gave it.
