Cork was dry and crumbled. Decanted for 30 minutes. Crushed stone and flowers on the nose. Blackberries and licorice flavors. Still slightly tannic and a bit sour and thin, but drinkable. Didn't love it, but I probably waited too long.

Properly cellar stored on side yet cork dry & crumbled, but wine was very good, still super dark purple, fruity & smooth. Aged, soft blueberries, a bit of mint, earth & minerals. Drink window is "drink up now-2017" for those who still have bottles.

Cork crumbled on top bus seemed intact overall. Opaque purple black color. Bouquet is on the aged side. Appearance is grainy with sugar coating the glass side. A generous amount of sludge remains in the bottle. Doesn't taste corked but is going down the drain regardless. Way past prime.

Pulls up tannic . Thin mouthfeel. Needs a good half hour decant. Serve at cellar temp.
