this wine has finally come into it's own. tannins have softened (but are still there), dark purple fruits w/ a hint of coffee. well done. this will hold another 5 for sure.

Deep ruby red in appearance with slightly lighter edges. Complex nose with layers of damp earth, woody, tobacco, plums, black cherries and cocoa. Medium tannins (5.5/10) and medium plus bodied. Classic cool vintage with layers of lavender, black cherries, stewed plums, light baking spices, anise, truffles and damp earthiness. Long and smooth finish. Drink till 2021.

Solid well made wine with dark purple fruits, wood, and a hint of licorice.

Aged perfectly. Full bodied but smooth went well with a steak dinner.
