This has come into its own, with the dark/roasted red fruits and licorice prominent. Some spice and fairly balanced in the end. FWIW, I do not prefer big wines, but these seem to mellow out after some years in bottle. Probably around its peak or slightly past (pnp here).

A nose of dark fruit and some spice, dark garnet in color. A medium to full bodied red blend, with black cherry, plum, spice, a bit rough and disjointed. www.winelx.com

Nondescript soft red fruit. Feels like a pillow in my mouth, slightly bitter finish, especially on Day 2. Not really getting the 65% grenache (15% temp, 15% Shiraz, 5% monastrell)

Hot on the finish. Disjoint. But solid light red fruit.

Pretty color.
Did not taste particularly good.
Hot, thin finish.
