This has certainly lost some of the fruit and jammy flavors from the bottle I tried a few years ago. I drank this over 2 days and must say day two was a big disappointment.

On night 1, this was as I remembered it: huge jammy/cooked fruit (bramble flavors), a touch of spiciness, and a hint of heat on the finish. The nose was expressive and interesting. Night 1 score: 91+. However, on night 2, things weren't so good: the nose had turned to an off-putting prune smell that was masking everything else, and the flavors had gone a bit flat. This was my last bottle, so if you have any left, try to drink on the first night. Night 2 score: 88

Great even on 3rd day after opening. The wine bottle was evacuated of air. It was a 2004.
