  Might have waited a bit too long, fruit was flat or gone. Bit acidic.

  This wine is in a good spot right now. Don't think that any more bottle aging would do this one any better. The nose is volcanic, blackberry, medium to full bodied. The middle of this wine develops a little bit of plum and cocoa powder in the middle and some black pepper on the finish. More tannin than I thought it was going to have. Melka wine doing really well right now.

  Big, luscious, fruity and delicious but no match for a 2008 de Sales at half the price.

  I was expecting more from this, especially as it's from a good vintage and is ten years old. It felt quite cheap right out of the bottle, muddled and lacking class really. It improved somewhat over time but am glad I don't have more of this. I seem to remember enjoying this wine upon release but not now.
  
  Better on the 2nd day - more weight and a little bit better resolved, but still a bit whacky. There is a pronounced sourness that is a bit wayward. Glad I don't have more of this.
