definitely beyond prime. initially nice nose, and fruit with tannins on the palate but the flavors faded quickly. Still not unpleasant to drink. No complexity. medium body. short finish. OK with food that is delicate. Doubt if better tomorrow.

Better than we expected. Rich, slightly sour red cherry fruit dominates, along with a streak of vanilla and baking spice. A long finish. Plenty of fruit without being over the top. I would buy it again.

Nose is vanilla oak and cherries, with pronounced cinnamon overtones. Tart red fruit across the palette with spice in the mid and moderately long tapering finish. Light body and good complexity, smooth tannins. Nice!
