Enjoyable nose, smelled like it was going to be a good wine. Dark purple color (not inky), it looked mature. A little flat on the palate. Short finish. Lacked tannins. IMHO, I think that this one is past its prime and was probably a better drinker when it was younger. I could be wrong, but I'd drink up now. Has a fairly mature taste and feel.

No detectable tannins. Soft dark cheery on the nose and palate with smoky oak background. Nice length to the finish but turns a little hot. Garnet at edges. Mature secondary cabernet flavors there, but the wine is not complex. It still has another couple of years for those who prefer to drink their wines on the older side.
