Good wine. Nice aroma. On the palate some licorice. Powerful. I have to agree with the previous note that this wine is losing it's brightness and seems to be over it's prime. Still good, though. Good complexity with some finish.

very nice dark fruit with slight bramble, oak and a little stewed fruit on the finish. Starting to lose brightness so may want to drink up the remaining ones

Popped and poured, had a glass before going to bed. Note taken after about an hour of being open. Dark garnet color. Ripe brambly nose with a bit of oak underneath. Taste is stewed cherry, fig, pepper. Despite the ripeness it does seem balanced; good acid up front with sweet tannins bringing up the rear.

Solid wine. Still showing fruit and depth. Licorice. Raisins.
