  March 13, 2015 - Deep ruby almost to the edge. Cedar/pine wood and just a smidgeon of florality. Medium weight. Diffuse black tinged fruit is overpowered by acidity and the chocolate/cocoa quality of the oak which leaves an unpleasant dryness at the end. Where is the rich, fruit-filled wine that others describe? This is entirely consistent with a bottle I had 5 years ago; no noticeable improvement whatsoever. More smoke and mirrors than real substance here, I'm afraid, at least for the bottles I've had.
