Dramatically better than the last bottle. Great Gevrey earthiness. Secondary components combine with still-lively fruit. Yum. Don't hold tremendously longer, though -- probably 5 years max.

Already at or possibly slightly past peak. Some minor bricking, otherwise very light red. Secondary characteristics both aromatically and on the palate. Very oaky, particularly upon opening, easing up a bit as wine opens up. Fairly short but pleasant finish. Maybe this was an off bottle to some degree, but don't see this lasting much beyond, say, 2014.

Light strawberries and a hint of spice. Medium light body and silky. Has some charm, but otherwise not much going on and not really Gevry like.
