Bought one for 7 from a local independent eclectic shop. Solid cork. Decanted with normal sediment for its age. Medium purple; mature red berries, some spice that follow on the palate from Cab Sauv (50%), Syrah (40%), and Carignan (10%), good mouthfeel. Better with 24h (vacuvin). Ordered 2 more after trying this first bottle. Stored horizontally in a cool, dark basement since purchase. Quality, age, price: Notable+.

Nice Syrah/Cab blend with spice, leather, med-high tannins and funky tertiary notes. Well balanced and complex.

Did it make it for 7 years. And it kinda has. Full and fleshy and juicy.

The syrah shows through a bit here. Tight. A little restricted.
