At ten years, this bottle has aged very nicely. The tannins have settled a bit, overall texture velvety, with a nice balance of red fruits and muted spice.

Drinking well--riper than other vintages I've tasted, but this bottle was fresh and full of carignan spice. In warmer weather, the wine shows more raisiny character.

Enjoyable, fruity and good QPR, but nothing to get too excited about.
