  Medium red fruits, good finish. I'd drink up though, it won't get better.

  Supposedly past it's date, but not so. Warm and deep with a nice soft finish. A bit of an alcohol bite in the throat, but it's a 14.2% wine, so not a surprise. A very nice blend.

  Good color, well integrated. In a good spot but doubt it will be there for long. Maybe another year

  Expected more... no flaws, but nothing memorable. May have passed its prime. Decanted and drank ofer 5 hours... first taste about an hour in.
  
  A little bricking in the color. Subtle nose with soft red fruits dominating. Attack was almost non-existent... just a singular expression - a very composite flaore profile - nothing much jumped out - maybe a hint of baking spice and black cherry. Medium body. Little tannins on the finish...it just kind of drifts to a close.
