Bricking rim. Probably as mature as it gets without fading too much. Earthy notes, complex with light tones of red berries over a more mature plum/cherries/dried fruits carpet. A solid structure still supported by the acidity; the fruit does not really follows up to balance it out, yet it is a good wine - but not fabulous. Good length on the finish.
For me this wine is drink now, and I suspect that has been the status for some time. But there is still some life left here.

Orange-red colour. Some cherries and menthol on the nose. Medium acidity, earthy and leather notes. Moderate finish.
