January 1, 2024 - Was good with prime rib and paired great with cranberry sauce. Definitely needed food to kick it up, won’t last much longer

December 30, 2023 - Nose of black cherry, black berry, allspice and dry earth, on the palate, medium/big body, very tasty, mouth filling fruit, showing its age, smooth, mellow, medium/long finish.
