I don't know if I just don't know anything about wine or this bottle has developed since the last review but this is NOT an 88-90pt bottle of wine. We just enjoyed a very full bodied, smooth, finely textured wine from bouquet to finish. Very enjoyable 92 pts.

A nose of stewed warm fruit, leather and spice join flavors of stewed plums, VA, racy spiced coffee and cedar. Finish is medium length with a bit of heat and spice.

This wine has a certain old world charm. Being 13 years old the flavors are a now muted with a mocha finish. There is a bit of heat at the end.

Wrote a note to cellar for a few years in 2011. Now it is 2019. Time to drink it!

Decanted for 4 hours Deep purple hue, low acidity. Nice nose, but no distinct structure. Many better WA wines at this price point.
