Dark red-purple color; dense appearance. Muted aromas of dark fruit. Muted flavors of dark fruit, but difficult to distinguish individual flavor components. "Hot" and tannic, with somewhat gritty mouthfeel. (This was a wine I should have consumed 10 years ago. It was still drinkable, but mostly dead in terms of its aroma and flavor components. Mea culpa.)
Underwhelming. Felt flat and didn’t hold my attention very long. I thought perhaps my expectations were too high and I wasn’t being objective, but when I went back to it the next day with lower expectations, it was still not very interesting.

Some barnyard, secondary fruit, lead, cedar notes balanced with tannin & acidity decently integrated with a medium finish. Good, not great. I don't think there is benefit in hanging onto these but the end isn't imminent.
