Very nice wine, but definitely slightly over the peak. Classic Booker flavors, dark cherry, cola, and cedar. A bit tired though. Not the same power I am sure it once had.

Nose of dark plum, smoke, black cherry compote, black licorice, and fresh spearmint. Dense palate of rich black fruits, dark chocolate, dried thyme, white pepper, and wet tree bark. Fat, voluptuous tannins on the finish, with black plum, brown sugar, and notes of red cherry and burnt coffee, finishing long with the oak note. Spectacular. Don't think it'll improve but will certainly hold for another 5+ years.

Bottle was corked. Noticed after one full glass. Bummer!

Still nice nose but palate has gotten a bit boozy.
