Suspect cork which was soaked through with some clear liquid on top. Still, showed better than the cork would suggest. Angular and and drying out a bit, but has some finesse to its' tertiary core and a pleasing herbal lift. Nice tea leaf note but also had a hint of burnt rubber on the nose.

Not the most representative bottle. Hard to score as there was some clear liquid seeped through a fully saturated cork.
The wine was drinkable, but sharp and angular. cranberry fruit tones remain but clearly a compromised sample.

Liked this much more than expected. Very subtle on the fruit, some tea, leather, tobacco, orange peel, still has some freshness to it.

DOA. Oxidized, but had a low fill deep into the shoulder. Bummer.

Wow - Wine of the night. Full of energy and brilliant secondary and tertiary flavors.
