Drinking flawlessly now. Decantered for an hour before drinking. Deep in color, dry with weakened but peaking tannins and an enjoyable long finish. Big oak presentaion and a great vintage not to be missed if found.

Decanted for 90 minutes Easter Sunday and served with beef tenderloin. I experienced no sediment in the bottle. It tastes like blueberry, blackberry and clove with medium/full body. Not overly complex with a medium finish. Not bad but not memorable either.

Blackberry, cherry and vanilla flavors. Moderate tannins. Drank nicely out of the bottle, but continued to smooth out over time. Starting to enter its drinking window, but should continue to improve over the next several years.
Worth picking up some more of this - nice QPR for an solid wine.

Good not great. Soft tannins, decent fruit, and some nice herbal notes. A bit overpriced so the score comes down a bit.

This was really good. Great balance of ripe dark fruit and Rutherford earth.
