Just fantastic. Drinking so well now. Have 2 more, will be interesting to see what happens over time. Want to give the next one a couple of more years if possible! The fruit is great, just a lot going on with berries at one point and some menthol leather notes at another.

This is the third bottle we tried since March 2013. I think it should be drank now since this bottle seemed to be at its peak. I probably should have decanted it. As before, it was excellent- dark violet in color and very fruit forward with plum and blackberry on the nose. It was as well balanced as the last one and mid palate it was silky with cherries, vanilla, a little chocolate and leather. It had a very long finish and was full bodied.

I like this but was expecting a little more. Jammy but not in a bad way, velvety mouthfeel, full body dry lingering finish. Good but the fruit is a little muted or non descript. Good not great.

It's not a bad wine, just wasn't singing for me. Definitely past its peak.
