  Definitely more mellow given its age but for me it worked great as everything was in balance

  Not as spectacular as previous bottle. This one was a bit flat, lacked vibrancy/energy, and seemed a little past prime.
  
  Still a nice quaff of cherry liquor on a svelte frame, although fruit is starting to turn. Some earth and black olive too.
  
  I would drink any bottles sooner versus later and hope you get one like I had two years ago.

  Bottle aged well. Nice soft, lively tastes of red & dark fruits consistent throughout the bottle.

  Incredible wine that is just entering prime drinking window.
  
  The aromas remind me of crushed raspberries in cherry liquor, light baking spices, tea leaves, English thyme and marble mineral overtones.
  
  Palette is layered and nuanced showing red raspberry and red cherry at first, then a wave of black cherry, strawberry, and red plum takes over on the back end with herbs, earth, and meaty notes melding perfectly into the finish. Nothing green, no astringency, finishes clean, silky, and long.
  
  This wine may get better and should hold through at least 2022.
