In the mature bouquet bell pepper and the first signs of celery. On the palate the same impressions; very ripe fruits and chocolate. There is still good acidity and very soft tannin. Still a pleasure to drink, but don’t wait much longer.

Color is dark red brick. Decanted 2 hours. Nose of oak/perfume. Taste of cherry, oak, black pepper, tannin. Lingering cherry+bitter lime flavor on tongue. Nearing end of life. Drink now.

Really solid everyday drinker. It’s a shadow of top tier wines but hitting the mark on a Wednesday nite.
