Good color and body, has many more years left in the bottle. This was very dry on the end, I felt the depth of flavor was not as good as the Private Reserve. I enjoyed it - it is well made but will not likely buy again.

Black fruit, chewy cherries, cedar, herbal notes, licorice, layered complexity, hints of cocoa, supple silky tannins. It has a great backbone and fruit and will only improve as the secondary flavors develop, and the fruit subsides. A+
