Received as a gift in 2007...finally got around to open it. Happy it was still good. Went pretty well with a steak on the grill. Good finish with some fruit.

On first opening, first taste was amazing. Great flavor, and a sweet, long finish. 1/2 hour later, it was not the same. finish had a bitterness, which wasn't bad, but not like before. Still, I'd give it 85-90 pts. The last bottle will get consumed right after opening!

Medium bodied, earthy, light in fruit, but with nice, tobacco, tinged, red fruit aromatics, the wine is just past full maturity and needs to be consumed sooner than later.
