Boysenberry, baking spice, oak aromas. Similar flavors, with some wild game, smoke and earth mixed in. Long, filling finish that's a bit on the hot side still. This wine has aged very well. It's still quite vibrant and assertive, with many more good years in front of it. This is my last bottle and I wish I had more.

My earlier notes hold true. The wine is well integrated with a black fruit, tobacco, and spicy flavor profile. Long finish. Will hold up for quite a while longer.

Spicebox, toffee, black fruit, and leather on the nose. Bursting with flavor. Strong acid backbone. Superb, especially with food.
