We opened ours last night, paired it with chicken piccata. Everyone raved about the wine. I'm surprised to read the prior comments. I know ours is a bit older, but it was still robust and hadn't lost any of it's character. It had been stored correctly from bottling. Contacted the winery directly to see if there are any in the library. Hoping...

Nice earthy, cherry notes on the nose. Palate is well balanced, with cherry, some white pepper, hints of smoky oak, secondary forest floor and meaty notes. Still has an adequate amount of fruit, body and acidity left but not likely to evolve any further at this point. Drink up.

Same as tasting notes from Oct 2014. Enjoyable given the earthy characteristics and more full-bodied nature of the wine.
