Interesting wine, not what I was expecting. Lots of fruit still, quite a bit of sour cherry, which mellows out after some air. Quite nice! After an hour in the glass, even better!

Decanted for 1 HR and then consumed. Very smooth and still lots of fruit for an 11 yr old bottle. Slight "sweet" taste to it but I really liked the wine. No sense of it going to a secondary older stage. Still a great finish and goes extremely well steak.

Not much different from my last note. Very nice nose. Still plenty of fruit on the mid-palate. Huge long finish. I decanted for about 2 hours and drank it over a 6 hour time period. Went extremely well on its own and with my steak.

Decanted for about 2 hours prior to drinking. Very smooth wine with some mid-palate fruit and decent 30-45 second finish. Still has lot of life left.

A solid effort. Deep with good acidity. A great food wine. I'm thinking it has 5 more good years ahead of it.
