Drink now - it's beginning to decline. Still great, nose of roasted blueberries and roasted red meat. The palate is dark roasted fruits, pine, balsamic vinegar, some tannins - really nice.

Wonderful balance. Casis, leaves, smoke, rosemary. Some savory notes on the palate. Great structure. Elegant. Very nice with rack of lamb. Drinkining well now.

In a pretty good place. This wine is capital R Ripe and Rich red fruit just spilling over into some meatiness. Long not completely harmonious finish.
Will definitely last longer in the cellar.

Nice fruit - blueberries on the palate. Good, lingering finish.
