92 Points

Monday, December 26, 2011 - Huge variation between bottles with this wine. I've had three outstanding bottles out of a case in the past 10 years. This bottle was nice, showing bricking at the edge of the wine with a slight orange cast throughout. Aromas of plums, flavors of cherry cola, licorice, spices. Tannins melded. Wine fully balanced with good length. This does open up with air and deserves to be decanted 90 minutes in advance. Drink now or hold another five years.
