Surprisingly well preserved and better than expected from this ~12 yr. old vintage. Simple notes, but lasts on palate and very low acidic bite. Wish I had more; this was the last bottle.
Delicious Soft fruit and black flavors. Tannins so well integrated, nose of smokey mulberries, syrah only evident on first mouthful, otherwise grenache and mourvedre dominate, with PS providing the softness
