This is a really nice bottle. Still very tight and I'd wait another couple years to open another. Once open has sour cherry, currant, dark berry flavors without much oak. This bottle had slight touch of oxidation (very slight) but hopefully just a cork issue and didn't really detract from the overall pleasure of a solid above average wine.

Nose is a little musty. Definite lots of dark fruit, tobacco, leather with nice oak. It’s tasting great. I was worried it’s getting old but still holding up very well.

Honestly really disappointing. Flabby, diacetyl, just not very good for $50. I've always loved this winemaker. This was a let down.
