I agree with the previous reviewer other than thinking this has already peaked. It should be OK for a few years but it has no where to go but down. Tasty stuff at a discount.

Pleasant nose. Deep dark plum and blackberries prevail, followed by spice and black pepper. There is a reasonably long finish. This is right at the edge of going over the top, but it stays on the correct side of the line. But there is not a lot of subtlety which is what keeps me from scoring it higher. This shows no signs of slowing down either.

Deep berry fruit, blackberries and blueberries in the nose. Black cherries, licorice, and some earthiness in the flavor. Ready Now!

Fabulous -- even after 10 years. Good structure. Strong dark fruit. This bottle had plenty of time left. A true pleasure.
