What a pleasant surprise. This has aged into an excellent, mature but definitely not over-the-hill wine. Lovely nose of cherry, hints of strawberry, black tea, and wet earth. Sweet cherry notes carry through to the palate, with Asian spice and clove notes. Still a bit of tannic structure, and balancing acidity. Loved this.

Very nice cherry flavors with a decent earthiness/spice component. Very pleased.

Not very good. Had an overripe quality to it. Prunish, slightly herbal... not enjoyable...
