Opened 90 minutes in advance. Aroma of garden herbs and black fruit. Rich flavors of cassis with hints of lemon, blackcurrants and licorice in the finish. Robust, hearty, firm backbone, some complexity. Plenty of room for development. Excellent wine at an outstanding price.

Very tasty but still a bit on the young side. Some dark red fruits started to come alive as time passed - and the fine tannins added nice mouthfeel. Much better on the second night - I suggest another two years of cellaring for this to fully develop.

Needed time upon opening to bring out flavors. Nicely integrated flavors although a bit lighter than I was expecting.

Sval, slank men med karaktär. Syrlig och matvänlig med bra längd.

Meh. Zinfandel notes but everything was much too muted
