Tasting pretty solid right now. Probably a little past it’s peak but bright ripe fruit and medium tannins linger on the palate. Cork with beautiful crystalization was starting to disintegrate - take care when opening.

Finally has come around the bend and is simply sensational right now with its blackberry fruit, chocolate, and spice character. Smooth and eased on the palate. Beautiful, drink up.

Very good, not great. Would drink again. Strong aroma of dark fruit initially. Taste is a little more subdued with some oil and smooth finish. Would drink now and next 2 years.
