I was hoping it will improve in the 3 years since I last tasted it. Unfortunately, a bit of a mess. Quite intense chocolate and cherry. Oak and pencil shaving. But hallow in the mouth missing any depth or length. Gets worse on day 2 and 3.

Still some life in this wine but not an easy wine to like. Agree with previous reviewer, taste is a bit of a mess. Good p&p for mid week.

Black cherry, blackberry, blueberry notes.
Smooth wine, light tannins.

Consistent with previous notes - left over night and some meat notes the following night but it had stood up well to a day in an open bottle.
