We've had this cellared for at least two years. Paired well with a beef fillet with a garlic/pepper rub (charcoal). Beets, onion, & garlic cloves and asparagus (all grilled). Has an earthy nose with hints of clove, smoke, cherry, & leather. The taste is beyond expectations! Just sweet enough to drink alone but with this meal, brilliant!

Still has a slight bite on the tongue. Tasting a bit young but packs a punch! Has the nose of a 97-98 pointer. Dark cherry , dark chocolate, a touch of leather!
