  pretty one-dimensional. Not past its prime, but not what one looks for.

  leaving this to cellar has paid off. Lots of cherry, a bit of pencil lead and some cedar notes. The balance has started to gel. Still a bit of alcohol which surprises me after this long. I can understand and agree that this was not very good a couple of years ago. It still is not a great wine, but it definitely is a good wine.

  Not a sipper (which may help explain some of the lower ratings), but paired well with prime rib as a second bottle after a good Chateauneuf-du-Pape. Nice dark fruit with pleasant pencil lead note. Wish I had purchased more than one bottle.

  Purchased for $9 at WL. Decanted for 30mins prior to serving. Must be bottle-variation here... otherwise I can't explain the low scores (as others noted). Very enjoyable wine. Notes of sweet, dark fruits: sweet blueberries, black plums, vanilla. Maybe a hint of smoke. Good balance (not overly tannic). Pleasing to smell. B+

  Pretty nice wine with good fruit and austere, firm tannins. Don't understand the low ratings from some.
