Was in great shape, and really a pleasant surprise. Classic masculine Hermitage profile: meaty, bloody, black fruits, some slight floral aromas, and a spicy note that, along with the crunchy/grainy tannins suggested whole cluster fermentation.
Really lovely, but drink up, as I don't expect this bottle would have lasted more than a couple years longer.
