Minor bricking in the glass. Big mouth of dark concentrated mature ripe fruit. Nice balance of fruit and oak. The fruit faded a bit after a couple of hours. This wine is likely at its peak or just beyond.

Big, rich dark fruit with some spice. Stretched nicely over a couple of nights. Not going to get any better. Last bottle.

Based on recent reviews, I did not decant. Dark ripe fruit, touch of sweetness. Good partner with smoked baby back ribs.

The alcohol (15.5%) has become more dominant with fading fruit. I wouldn't wait any longer on this one.
