Still drinking well, but on it's way out. Cedar does dominate the nose. First day was a much more delicate wine with a light almost sweet finish. Second day the wine had considerably opened up and I getting the earth notes mentioned in the previous tasting notes. If you can find a deal on a bottle in the next 6 to 9 months, go for it.

Ruby Red Color. Cedar Aromas are predominant with pencil shavings and some subtle black fruits to round off the nose. Leathery cedar and earth flavors are present amongst smooth subtle tannins. A bit on the woody side.

Kicked up the rating a notch from last tasting. Nice balance of earth and dark fruits. I still wouldn't want to age this much longer. I don't worry about it drying out but I think it is peaking now.

A bit light but nice earth nuances.
Don't wait much longer for these.
