Amazing. Big nose. Slight mustiness at first that blew off. Dark fruits. Nice structure/acid. Big in the mouth. Still tannic. This seemingly has years ahead of it and it's 13 years old and $14.

Very complex, not too pleasing nose - oak, alcohol, mossy notes. Full mouthfeel, just a bit of heat. There's a real depth of flavor - deep fruit, good acidity, abundant soft tannins. A lot going on with this wine. Not like anything I've tasted before. Believe it will keep for a while. Worth trying.

Anita: A little black tar & coffe on the nose, with underlying blackberry; rich aromas can withstand hint of sweet oak; Great big, soft mth, tons of t’s, Lots of alcohol (only 14%); earthy character, dusty, a big powerful bruiser w/macho earth and darkness.Bravo. From Jeff
