Decanted one hour. Rich dark color with hints of cinnamon and cherry onthe nose. Slight flavor of tobacco with a creamy chocolate finish. The fruit has seemed to diminish a bit. Should drink the second bottle soon!

Very nice wine. Nose is very berry with notes of raspberry and blueberry. Fruit on the palate has mostly subsided for an earthy quality. Mostly balanced with perhaps too much tannins and alcohol, but quite smooth and pleasant finish. This wine still has legs. Will drink well for another year or two at the very least.

First glass ok, with a little air, the second was excellent. Black cherry and tobacco flavor. Sipped with family on our 22nd anniversary. Would have been great with pizza.

Rich smooth and delicious. Not getting better, but still very good. Mostly secondary flavors. Fruit is in the background. Very easy drinker.
