11/6/22- disclaimer: this was a gift and I don’t believe it was stored properly. This bottle is way passed its prime. Starting to oxidize , no fruit, still had acid. I couldn’t drink it- a few others at the party did.

Pop & Pour - nose was muted with tobacco, smoke, and some vanilla. Palate was entirely oaky and not very good. Acidity overwhelming as well.
1 hour late - wow.. completely opened. chocolate, vanilla, tobacco, tar, nose is awesome. Alcohol is balanced, acidity is refreshing and no longer overwhelming. delicious for drinking without food. also good with some sausage pasta.
Drink up, getting into the prime. Thanks for the gift Drew!

Lovely deep ruby. Mellowed tannins and loads of tobacco and black cherry on the palate. Long finish.
