This wine is drinking great right now and still has a number of years ahead. Dark fruits and cedar changed over the hour we were drinking, getting richer and stronger. Have one more in cellar that I’ll leave for a couple more years.

When first opened the smell of dark rasberries were the strongest element of the wine. After an hour in the glass, tar was almost too overpowering to enjoy but was soon replaced with dark fruit. The tase was not as equal as the aroma.
