Despite most of the cork drying out it kept it's seal and I was rewarded with a full bodied mouthful of flavor. Some slight cherry flavor, nice tannins, and the finish is BIG and very long. Glad I waited a few more years before opening it.

This was a nice shiraz. The nose was a little hot and metalic, likely due to the high alcohol content. Opened one hour before serving and it still opened up over dinner. Flavorful fruity wine with a nice finish but nothing exceptional. A surprising amount of sedement was left in the bottle and last sips. Overall, a nice wine but a little expensive for the quality.

Drank on a friend's birthday. Nice and fruity still with some tanin, but not really worth the price.
