  PNP. Cork soft but perfect. Color garnet w signs of aging. Nose dominated by oak dill and alcohol w cherry fruit. Swishing this show mostly tannin and alcohol structure. Unmistakably warm climate. Sipping is more forgiving because it has glycerin but the finish is dominated by alcohol. Good but need to serve with a hearty dish because this lacks finesse at this point

  Last bottle. Still quite fleshy with a lot going on, which makes it difficult to parse for this note, and I wish that in might have waited another five years or more, but the cellar just isn't that large... or deep!
  
  NA: the wine lost its luster near the end of the bottle. Sort of lost the depth, and then the acid and tannin took over a bit. Too bad.

  Some good shit. Nice nose, good mouth, very good length. Vibrant fruit, still a bit structured, and still a big fleshy. That all said, the effect is one of great balance.
  
  Wait until 2018 for the last bottle.

  Structured and full bodied wine with a very nice berry nose and taste. Drinking wonderfully but needs an hour in the decanter. Paired perfectly with cheese souffle.
  The wine looks ruby colored. There is light sediment in the bottle.
  It smells like blackberry and blueberry. It tastes like blackberry and blueberry. The body is medium/full. The wine has medium acidity.
