Friday, December 24, 2004 - Christmas Eve Dinner with Family (Home): I was very afraid there would be nothing left to this wine, but boy was I wrong. All the tannins have melted away making this a very lush drinker. Yes, some of the bolder fruit flavors were muted, but the mouthfeel was incredible. Hints of cherry, cinnamon. strawberry and pepper. Definitely WOTN. I cannot believe I paid only $14 for this wine. I just wish I had bought more! I do think that if you have any of these now is the time to drink them, as I would estimate at most a year or two left.
