  Dark ruby, almost black color. A bit flawed by too much brettanomyces but when it is gone, showes a very dark , spicy fruit wih plus acidity. Rustic but steely back bone. Tastes better the second night. medium finish. Lots of sediment, don't shake the bottle!

  Still fresh and bright. Drinking well now. Medium plus weight with mixed red and black fruits and sour cherry on the finish. Better than a few years ago when the sour cherry was a bit too much. More balanced and has been cellared at 58 degrees past 4 years. Daily drinker, not complex.

  Past it's prime. The same bottle of this was an 85 last year, it's a 75 now. I really expected this to last a bit longer. Incidentally, I had picked up a case of the 2005 on clearance about a year ago for $65 as the 2006 was drinking great then -- and regretted it after the first bottle. This now tastes like that 2005 more than the 2006. Anyways, it drank better on the second night ( after having half and being re-corked the first night )

  Not sure if wine bottle was off, if not it was just an awful, terrible blend.
