Although the cork broke off while opening, the wine itself still had plenty of fruit flavors & was smooth to the palate. Mature wine with very little tannins left. Overall, still very good.

Definitely past its prime but still very interesting. Lots of bramble, earth, mushroom. Tannins long gone. Was very good to sip and with steak. Nose was soft but earthy; palate no wood, just hints of dark fruit with mushroom and earth

red colour, faded at rim just a touch of brown Love the way it smells, tobacco, mellow, so cedar Tangy on the palate, a little mushroom, still some tannin and a kind of chestnut texture on the finish long Falls apart very quickly in the glass so don't decant and drink it quickly!
