19 years and still going! With fig, current, date, and a hint of cherry. Opened and allowed to breath about 1+ hour. Very enjoyable. A pleasant surprise.

Dark inky purple, beautiful full legs and a shiny disc. Cherries and plum, with a deeper vibrant cedar showcasing a ending floral bouquet. Very soft with a little cocoa. Huge fruit! Blackberry, cedar, and plum, followed by cinnamon, clove, allspice, and sandalwood. Very smooth and still some tannin. At 15.3% this is not for the faint of heart. Not a 91 because it became a little overpowering after time. A wonderful wine, for a fantastic price.

As my 8/5/06 note but time has softened tannins and I'm getting more cocoa on the nose. I'm also not getting the heat now.
