  Drinking my last bottle now, nearly six years after the first, and it's a completely different wine.
  If anything, I can tell this time that it has probably entered the DRINK NOW segment of its life, but it's still far from gone. Big spicy nose, and lots of dark fruit. Not noticing so much the oak others had observed in previous reviews. Tannins are pretty soft.

  After pouring, this wine was all about oak on the nose and palate. The oakiness settled down a bit after about 15 minutes in glass and some very nice currant was revealed with some nice sweet tannins underneath. Shame about the heavy handed oak treatment - otherwise, this would have been a very nice wine.
