Quite dark colour with almost no signs of age on the rip. Dark cherry, blackberry, grapefruit rind. Intense fruit palate up front, little light on middle palate but decent finish, still some tannins and very good structure and balance overall . Did not know Petite Sirah would last this long.

Dark red-garnet. Deeply fruited, earthy aroma, blueberry-blackberry, black pepper, mushroom. On entry, smooth and fat in the mouth. Balanced low intensity dry fruits and a touch of American oak. Matched well to lasagna. Bottle #4 of four.
