Needs plenty of air to fully open up and reveal the fruit. A modern wine with great balance. I would have preferred a bit more acidity but this is by no means flabby. Drink up.

Still very deep color, blackberries, currants, and chocolate in the nose. A well balanced wine with a very nice mouth feel. lush fruit, and a medium to long finish.

Interesting flavor profile. Still inky and dense but it has become more mellow. With time and air we get somewhat more fruit. Light, soft tannins hiding underneath. I don't have any sense that this wine is past its time, but it is drinking very well right now.

Tasted blind. Spice, white flowers, lots of good structure and solid fruit. Outstanding balance and finesse, youthful and fresh. I was thinking this might be syrah, very tasty juice at a good place right now.

Last bottle, notes of Tempranillo and Cabernet in this dark purple, soft, plummy wine.
