Dark berries and plum and quite honestly grape, with a consistent tannin structure. High alcohol, but with a mid palette roundness that helps alleviate the heat. Improves with aeration, but has relatively low acidity. Good value for the price. Not an “Oh wow”, but solid.

Very mellow but held up nicely with a heavy brisket. I agree that this vintage has peaked, and will likely begin its decline hereafter.

solid boysenberry and cherry fruit, well refined tannin, a bit of iron and tobacco notes. Solid and a good QPR

Very full bodied. Legs like Carrie Underwood! Grape/Prune vibe.
