Sunday, December 31, 2017 - Served with country prime rib of pork, brown rice, and salad.
Deep crimson, almost opaque. Decanted after flaw check - quite a bit of sediment. Touch of brick at the rim.
Nose: dark fruit - plum and prune.
Palate: dry, dark fruit, big flavor profile, moderated acid and tannin. Stood up to the prime rib (with its fat) quite well. Medium finish.
Nice wine, but won't get any better.
