Eye: Fairly advanced-looking medium black ruby.Nose: Soft, sweet nose of very ripe. spicy blackberries and raspberries, augmented with carrot-cake spices.
Mouth: Very soft, round, and medium-full in the mouth. Almost sweet flavors of ripe raspberry and peach (the latter being a dead giveaway in a red that the fruit was too ripe), with a faintly minerally, balsa wood component. A bit flabby and lacking some focus, but with lots of flavor.
Score: 84.
Cellar or drink? Drink up, because this will only get more disjointed as time goes on.
Price/store: About $25 at Spec's on Smith (also available at the Spec's on Richmond).
