Drinking very well right now, but has lots of time left. Nose has some nice ripe stemmy notes along with fresh cherry, raspberry, violets, a hint of tar. Very clean nose. Color is starting to mature a touch. On the palate, this wine really comes alive. Lots of cranberry, good acidity, some stemmy spice. Silky smooth tannins. The wine is singing right now. Delicious.
Unfortunately, the cork showed signs of wine leakage and the taste, although not oxidized, had lost its complexity and was quite one dimensional and uninspiring. I blame this on the cork flaw, so my rating is based on the result - drinkable but lacking of interest.

Fresh cherries and raspberries on the palate. Medium weight with moderate length.
