  Lovely wine showing great complexity, smoothness and richness - still at its drinking peak, I'd say.

  Limited note as had at party with improper stemware. Quite heavy oak on the nose, but nice round palate with very little heat, good fruit. Seems like it has several years left to go. Everyone enjoyed it and it was gone quick.

  Big dose of oak, but the winemaker was able to keep it in check with top-notch craftsmanship. Lots of spices, red fruit, smoke, and some herbs. Very nice.

  The wine smoothed out nicely from it's original tannic young state.

  Generous fruit but not too jammy, with plenty of alchohol and oak on the nose and pallette. The color is starting to show some age (in a good way). Nice looooong finish.
