This is one of those wines that probably isn't worth it's price (approx $50) but each bottle brings back awesome memories of a fun day barrel tasting in the cave.

Very enjoyable bottle. Didn't decant, but did give some air in glasses. Wine had a full, chewy mouth feel with everything well integrated. Fine balance of acidity, alcohol and fruit - big but not imposing. Was delightful on its own, as we wound up drinking it before even getting the food ready.

Not as pleasant as I remembered while at the winery. A little hot on the initial taste. Flavors of chocolate and dark fruit.

Very nice wine. Drinking well and still drank pretty well days later. Nothing too complex... not sure it's worth the price tag, but nicely balanced.

Very good. Got better as it breathed. Last glass was the best. Next time let this one sit open for an hour or more.
