Tuesday, April 22, 2014 - Musty mushroom and raisiny on the nose, predominant taste of leather, a little tobacco, hint of raisins/dry cherry and bell pepper.
Nice med+ body for a 13.4%, and still reasonable tannins, med finish. Over its prime for sure, but not shot at all. Not overly raisiny like some older wines can be, color was still burgundy, not brown. Definitely a good cork and storage history for this bottle, uliage only 1/2" and the cork was stained to about 1/4 through.
