Has been sitting in the cellar for 1.5 yrs...drinking just fine i would suggest, but would hold for a few more years easy. Decent value from Opimium. Dark nose of fruit and light smoke with vanilla. Palate is rich with fruit - dark, and brambly with a light undertone of green qualities. It is smooth'ish. Really becomes expressive with some air time. Food gives this another +.

Tasty, but pretty boring when all is said and done - Medium darkness and body, plum, cherry, spice and vanilla on the nose, simple, balanced, sweet, sour on the palate with okay length, tasty but boring (84 Points).

Not bad for the price. Rich mouth feel, some complexity. A bit sweet. Drinking well now
