I decanted the bottle to introduce some air and to leave the sediment behind which precipitated over the 20+ years. This wine still has vibrant deep ruby color. It has aromas and flavors of black cherry, blackberry, spice, and cocoa. The tannins are well integrated and supple, and the finish is silky with good length. This wine was delicious. Nice job, Dave.

Nice wine, well-balanced, good fruit, nice tannin. Probably could use several more years in the bottle to soften the tannins. Very nice.
