  Still drinking well. Probably quite a bit of life left. Tannins still very present. Berry nose. Some black pepper. Medium long.

  drank as part of a small vertical of 2004 thru 2008.
  
  Dark fruit flavors with a hint of raspberry and leather. Good tannin and earthy highlights. Full bodied wine with a long finish.
  
  Group had it as their second choice in a narrow vote over the 2004 but well behind the 2007.

  Very little signs of age in the color, a hint of lightening on the rim. Nose was subdued, but nice - some tobacco, cedar, and cherry. The wine was rich and smooth in the mouth, tastes of cherry, vanilla, spice, white pepper. A bit jumbled together in the middle, but a nice, interesting wine that drank above the price paid.
