Out of the bottle some interesting, roasted, developed aromas and an elegant taste with red berries. Soft, aged tannins. Ultimately lacking some power, probably rather at the end of its drinking window.

Fairly subtle wine with some easy hints of white pepper on the palate. I didn't get the sense that it could benefit much from more aging. Decent but overall all a bit flat.

Popped and poured, consumed over two nights. The first night it was a little closed but the second night it opened up. Dried red fruit, some pepper, a little dusty.

Medium clarity. Medium ruby in color with brick red around the edges. Cranberry, raspberry and granite on the nose. Tart cherry tannin bomb with hints of licorice on the palate. Not complex. Expected more out of this one. Needs more 2-3 years longer in the cellar.

Heavily corked - too much to bother to find out what it would have been without cork.
