  January 31, 2022 - Purchased this back in 2010 on a WineCommune auction, put it in the cellar and forgot about it until now. I wish I would have grabbed it about a decade ago.
  
  PnP, consumed over 2 hours. Appearance: Clear with noticeable browning, medium intensity mostly garnet but borderline tawny in color. Nose: Clean, medium intensity, with medicinal aromas along with stewed red fruit, shoe leather, and tobacco. Palate: Dry, low acid, medium- tannin, medium+ body, medium intensity, high alcohol - 15.5% abv with fully developed flavors of stewed cherry and raspberry, leather and earth with the 15.5% abv speaking loudly on the medium finish. Overall still a good wine, but definitely on the decline. Drink now.
