Drinking really nicely now. Dark, inky, with a peppery finish. Not sure this has much more time left before it starts to lose structure and become an alcohol bomb.

Dark dark red, medium-full bodied. Quite oaky and a bit hot when first opened, but it developed over an hour into a strong, well structured, nicely balanced, delicious tasting drink.

Color: Very nice purple garnet Nose: Red and dark fruits dominate the nose along with pencil shavings/oak. Palate: Full-bodied in the mouth, well balanced. lots of red fruit and a long woody, leather finish. This is a very nice wine. 50, 5, 11, 17, 6 = 89 (Excellent)

Aroma: pepper and cherry (aroma might turn you off but it tastes great).
Palate: raspberry, cedar, blueberry, vanilla.
Drink now as it's peaking.

Excessive alcohol, sappy fruit bomb. Absolutely not my style. More is not always better.
