Cork crumbled when I took this out so I was nervous it was shot. Aromas of dried strawberry, cherry, rhubarb and earth. Flavors of dried cherry, dried strawberry, mushroom and bit of earth. Ends with a 20+ second finish with cherry and strawberry notes. Has some good structure but a bit shy on complexity at this point. Certainly easy drinking though.

Served with Salmon and grilled vegetables. Shows the age in color. Smells like a big, mature Oregon PN: dried cherry and maybe a hint of strawberry, but mostly an earthier tone. Good balance. Drank alongside a 2013 Winderlea Weber Vyd... showed both young an old wines well. Fair QPR at $48 US.

Medium-deep ruby red in color with slight clearing at the edges. Full, fragrant & attractive nose of ripe fruit aromas of cherries, strawberries & raspberries with overtones of sandalwood & cloves, some floral notes, earthy/dusty, minerals & a hint of cedar. Medium bodied with a good concentration of well balanced & smooth textured, ripe fruit flavors of cherries, strawberries & plums with spices, earthy & minerals. Lingering finish. Drinks quite well at present & at 12 years of age, is possibly close to or at its peak of development. Quite Burgundian in style & structure.
