I always find Bedrock red wines to be quite full-bodied and they go a little sweet on the finish. This was no exception, but it has great complexity, minerality that I can taste and smell, and no noticeable alcohol. I still probably prefer Carlisle, but this was a great experience. 92+

I think that chadrich and rieslinghoarder are correct - the Cellar Tracker drinking window for this wine is probably too short and this wine has at least a year or two to go.
Wine is round and easy drinking. Tannins are pretty well integrated. For a wine with ABV of 14.5%, the alcohol is also pretty well hidden.
I wouldn't hesitate to drink this. My last bottle will be gone soon!

Seemed a bit past its prime. Quite oxidized. Not a lot of fruit.

Fruit has faded - tannins and acidity remain. Might be okay with a fatty steak but not much else.
