April 18, 2010 - Nice full bodied red. Strong flavors of black cherry and currant. Hints of anise and tobacco. Long, full finish. It's been a few years since I've had this vintage, and it has definitely improved with age. The tannins have mellowed while the fruit has held up.

December 9, 2006 - Drinking well now, and no signs it will improve with age. Pleasantly surprised, not bad for the price.
