  Soft round black fruits with a wonderful nose of vanilla and tobacco. Very nice right now

  Pop and pour. A bit of star anise, followed by ripe fruits. Still has some decently robust tannins with a medium length finish. Not as fragrant as I remember it being when it was younger. Might need to decant a bit longer to let it open up.

  I agree with RJurMan. I wasn't expecting much, however, this wine was still well-balanced, albeit with lower acidity and tannins, but still with bright, ripe, black fruit. Probably has 1-2 years of bottle life left, but better to consume now. Why wait?

  Not much left in it. Rather flat and not much character. Hints of what it was but somewhat disappointing after Justin pitched a vertical special over Christmas of 2011, 12, 13 and 14 small format. Should have done some research instead of just jumping on the 'deal'.

  Found this in the back of a Eurocave that died on me. I didn't expect much after reading the reviews but this is honestly in a really good place. Fruit was bright and this bottle showed no signs of decline. I would drink them now just because it it was drinking so well.
