January 25, 2023 - Amazingly it's still highly drinkable in its 8th year. A bit too acidic when first opened. Berries, fruits and oak starts to show after decanting for an hour or so. Not bad for this price point.

October 15, 2018 - Bought 3b for 8/b from a local gourmet grocer two years ago. No decant, but it might have helped. Rich, dark color; fragrant; bright red fruit flavor--some chocolate--the first night, simple. Held some for 48h, and brightness mellowed, more chocolate, better but unremarkable mouthfeel, still simple. Stored horizontally in a cool, dark basement since purchase. My evaluation: I've stopped giving scores on a "100-point scale" as I've become less convinced that they can be meaningful to others. I use a 4-category scale (perhaps with +/-)--not including flawed--which runs outstanding/notable/drinkable/poor. I considered this notable- when considering quality, age, and price.
