Clear and deep cranberry in color, muted tannins, drinking temperature was 66 degrees. Did not decant. I was worried, being on the end of the CT drinkability window, that it would have lost its structure, but it did not disappoint -- classic Sullivan. I would guess that there are at least 3 to 4 more years of drinkability on this wine. Nice oakiness balanced with tannins like no one else but Sullivan seems able to create.
