This needs about 45 minutes to an hour of air to open up and let a barnyard funk blow off. Once that happens this becomes quite approachable. Raspberry, leather and mocha on the palate. Medium bodied without much tannin remaining. Good for a well aged Cabernet but drink up.

Similar to previous bottles but this bottle shows no evidence of being past prime. Plenty of cherry, raspberry, leather and herbs on the palate. Medium bodied with a medium finish. This had a rather sweet finish which surprised me. A good QPR at $30

Past prime but still quite approachable. Cherry, leather and raspberry on the palate. Well integrated tannins. Medium body and finish.

Medium body, dark cherry, raspberry, saddle leather and dried herbs. This evidenced more fruit than previous bottles but still a bit past prime.
