Brought this to dinner in downtown Portland last night, popped and decanted. Cork in great shape, looked almost brand new, with a tight seal. Dried cherry aromas, w/a hint of earth. Medium bodied, refined with a nice balance of acid and tannin, dried cherry flavor. Imagine this can go for awhile still, 10 yrs? Didn't last long, so the score might be a little low...as this was still opening up when the bottle emptied.
