January 5, 2022 - Probably past peak. Brick red with medium tears. Quite a bit of oak aromas remaining; notably some coconut, vanilla, and spice (presumably they used American Oak on this vintage?). Good acidity still with balanced tannins, but not much flavor left.

January 21, 2013 - Rich Tempranillo that had some black fruits and acidity to match with food. Opened up a little but I think this is as good as it is going to get.
