Held up much more nicely than I thought it would. It showed its age, for sure, but there's nothing wrong with deep, savory flavors taking over for sweet extraction.

A nice wine. Very smooth. Agree with Pintag that it was fleshy and that is good. I get overripe/muddled berries, chocolate, and some caramel. Could use a bit more in the way of tanins, but still very nice.

Drinking well now, but will probably be fine to sit a bit longer. Nice dark fruits, a healthy complexity that is a great value for the original cost of $15.

Still drinkable but not much life left. Silky mouthfeel. Smooth finish. Pair with mild cheese.

Pretty decent once it had some air. We enjoyed it.
