Big heavy nose on it, smelled like would taste the same. Absolutely delicious. Big and Heavy, will go well with my steak. The fruit is still prominent, but I can taste the age as it has lost a bit if it’s brightness. Probably slightly past it’s prime. After about 2.5 hour decant wow, much more fruit and body appeared, absolutely delicious!

One hour decant. Big and brawny. Deep reddish purple color. Nose of dark red fruit and earthy tones. Well balanced with the heft to go another decade. Didn't blow me away, but was a nice wine with a grilled ribeye.

It‘s good - a little nondescript, definitely on the heavy side, but not too sweet.

- Purple color. It's balanced with a full body. Smooth texture with a long finish - Smoooth!
