- Brick color - Very nice bottle, still with some life left. A little out of balance right out of the bottle, but opened beautifully. Great earthiness, leather and dried fruit (raisin). Depth of flavor masks high alcohol.

- Violet color and aromas of cherry. It's unbalanced with a medium body. Round texture with a medium finish - Nice nose, but definitely on the downslope. A little out of balance and thin; never quite opened. Drink 'em if you got 'em

- Violet color - Typical of vintage. Notes of green pepper. Not a fruit bomb, drinks very european.
