June 25, 2011 - Dark red. This is an obviously highly ripe, highly extracted and fairly heavily oaked style that is already going volatile. Drink up now if you can take the volatility, otherwise cook wit it.

January 16, 2011 - Garnet color with a clear rim. This took an hour to start to open up. Dried berries on both the nose and palate, this finishes with some cedar notes and has a slightly tannic finish. B+. This actually could benefit with some age on it.
