Nice red color. Was concerned because of age! Nice spice, nice fruit, light tannins. Balanced wine. Did not do a lot of analyzing, drank over 3 days. Vurprised the way it's held up!

I like it, I love it, I want some more of it. Unfortunately, it's the last one in my cellar. Still nice fruit (a sedate cherry, seems to me) and no bricking, despite having lived in room temperature lo these many years. Dry, with pleasing tannins at the finish.

This was still good - very similar to the previous bottle a year or so ago. Not sure there's a whole lot more upside to this given that it hasn't changed. Sad it's my last bottle of this vintage, but not sure there's much more this one will do.

Christmas dinner with pastitsio. Decanted for an hour. It’s drinking really well, still lots of fruit, didn’t notice the alcohol. Was even better after opening up a bit more in the glass. Definitely let this breathe a bit. Medium finish. Paired amazingly with the food. Drink up!
