  Ruby color with medium legs. Oak, spice and mixed berry on the nose. Plum, tobacco and leather on the palate. Medium smooth finish with a little acidity.

  This was “fine”. It didn’t blow us away as we had expected for a bottle we aged, and that should have aged ok until now. Very light in flavor. Last sips started to get dry after it had been opened for 2 hours. Probably could have used more decanting time. Opened at a French restaurant and paired with pork and short ribs.

  Fresh. Red berries and plums. Tobacco and hints of leather. Soft tannins at this stage but not flabby at all.

  Still young but after a couple of days an improved presentation was experienced. Early on was big but unstructured. Later days displayed complexity and desired evolution.

  Meh. Had a glass in a bar, so take that with a grain of salt (was in SLC). Almost no nose. High acidity muted ruby color, long legs. No fruit taste left. Could be oxidized in bar, but rather blah
