Nice pointer from Dananne to this winery.
Bright, medium garnet red and can see through it a bit. Nose of cherry and spice, with a bit of floral, more like potpouri but light in a nice way.
Really easy drinking right now...I want it to last a bit but it will be as Dananne said, tough to keep your hands off. Great mouthfeel, round, smooth, with flavor going all over your mouth. On palate, cherry, berries, sweet cassis and a bit of smokiness. Nice complexity, but without knocking your brains out trying to figure it out. Everyone at the dinner party where this was opened like this very nicely done wine!

Glad to hear you enjoyed it. Thanks for the TN, as we've been wondering how the '04 is coming around.
