Still has loads of fruit (cherry notes dominate), and very complex. Tannins still mouth-drying, which makes me feel this wine can still develop for years to come, but it's in a beautiful place right now, with some light tar and oak on the finish. Best to let it breathe for 15-30 minutes before partaking.

It was a crowd pleaser, but it is past it's prime. Time to drink up any in storage.
