  Still going strong. In a nice place right now with plenty of ripe lush fruit, soften tannins, and a little heat but not too much.

  A beautiful bottle still with plenty of fruit and spice left. Drank great out of the gate with smoked meats, BlackBerry, and pepper spice, and held together with a balanced acid and integrated tannin spine. I’m sure it will hold up for a few more years but drinking in its prime now.

  Maybe past it's prime? Intense like an amarone and seemingly sweet like one as well. Tannins are weaker than the last time I had it. Blueberry dominates. Kind of flabby?? Not a lot of secondary notes either. Strange.

  Very solid Shiraz, opened about an hour prior to serving. Very different experience from a bottle of same vintage opened eight months ago. Tannins were present, but not bitter or overwhelming. Nice notes of black fruits with peppery notes.
