Friday, October 2, 2015 - Terrific nose - all kinds of black and blue fruit plus a healthy dollup of what I characterized as "bramble" (which I think is what other commenters described as "peaches"). Same good stuff on the palate. Tongue-tingling fruit and a really good finish. Upon opening, it was a little too port-like and hot, but after 30 to 60 minutes of air, it was well balanced. Really good structure and serious tannins. I think it will be better in another year or so.
