Light style reflects the vintage, while still showing reasonably fresh black fruit. A few rough edges near the finish. Still very nice, but probably better a few years back.

This wine is singing now. The alcohol that bothered me a couple of years ago is now buried under unfolding layers of tobacco-laced, anise-scented intrigue. Loved it!

Mature red cherry and berry throughout. Fresher and tastier vs a couple of bottles opened last year, but still long in the tooth.

Mature red fruit with woodsy spice. Moderate weight and depth, with a slightly drying finish. Should have finished these bottles a few years back.

not sure about this--i like it but the heat is apparent; the delicate and otherwise lovely frame can't support the alcohol.
