Dark gold color. Nice aromas of apricot and honey. Good acidity and well balanced (not too sweet). Very good length. Probably another couple of years before late maturity.

Bottle was opened 3 hours before tasting. Still dark purple color but with clear brick rim. Good balance. Tobacco, leather and dried cherries. medium length. Past its peak but very enjoyable with our duck breast.
Black cherries and cake spice on the nose. Very well balanced and still lots of fruits. Good length. Probably past its peak but I would guess another 3-5 years of a plateau.
