Quite tastey still, lots of fruit and balanced structure. The nose need 10 minutes to blow off a funk, but after that it held up nicely for several hours. This was a pleasant surprise.

Fruit forward, nice balance with acid, minerality, and lightest tannins. Not Burgundian, but not California heavy, either. Very "come hither" even after 6 years. Showing some age, but probably still on upswing. Remarkably pleasant, though not hugely complex, but great at price point.

Decent restaurant purchase, with nice acid and great earthiness.

This taster like grape juice. Really alcoholic, acidic juice. Not much aroma even. Sort of a bummer for the price.
