not past but mellowed friuit. tannis are soft but still there at the finish. nice balance and fresh med cherry fruit. opened to add to a stew marinade but will enjoy drinking a couple glasses as well.

Very deep plum color. Tastes of plum, berries & chocolate. Just enough tannins to enhance the flavor without detracting. Probably at it's peak, but still would have been drinkable for another year.

Might have been a bit oxidized. Color was red-brown, nose was a bit off and faint. Tasted ok, though lacking in tannins.

way past its prime, no fruit at all, just an aweful aroma and a tart distant tarry dirty mess
