Was ready to go on opening. Could taste a little bit of the age, but not over the hill at all. Chocolate cherry cordial & plenty of savory herbs. Still plenty of acid.

I quite liked this. Lots of savory and spicy complexity with the black cherry. Moderate concentration with good structure and balance. Still fairly young at age 10. Nicely done.

Superb. Just starting its run. Deep brambly ripe black cherries, and super spice notes. Balanced. A bit hot at the end of the third night so I'd drink this between now and a decade from now. Delicious, very well made.

Big and grippy. Lovely now with a decant but needs time. Intense stuff. Give it at least 3 years.

No detailed notes. Very deep color for 2008. Rich and ripe on the nose and palate with nice acidity.
