On PnP, smooooooth, not flabby but this is the end as far as acid goes, ripe blackberry, chocolate, nice amount of oak and the associated spice notes except vanilla. Very good rebound from the last bottle I had.
After several hours, while still ok I felt the wine died a bit so I'm downgrading this to 'good', maybe unfairly but that's my take. Drink fast.

Big spice and blackberry aromas, still lots of tannin for a wine of this age. Dark chocolate, coffee, dark fruits on the palate. Oak is there but not bothersome for me. Lacks any real sense of place—this could be a lot of different things from a lot of different places.

The Purge continues. Deep dark purple fruits, but too much wood oak in the finish. Down the drain!

A good blend that started out with good acidity and dark fruits. Fell apart as the night went on so need to drink sooner than later.
