  Totally different bottle than the last one I drank 4 years ago. Much better! Same providence. This is fruity with moderately strong tannins, moderate acidity. Mostly black fruit with a bit of red. Does not taste aged. No rust here, in flavor or color. Drinking well and may hold for another 3-5 years or more.

  Medium dark red in color. Mild fruit, a bit thin compared to its stronger acidity and tannin. Not particularly enjoyable but not bad. Drinking at its peak now or just past it.

  This second bottle drunk with ribeye steak, while still tannic and darkly flavored, gave a much better showing of black and blue fruits.
