  A few of the rough edges are reduced but much like 5 years ago. Dense, ripe, and hot. Nice mint, cassis, prune, charred meat notes, but the 15% alcohol adds some harshness.

  This is a very interesting wine, but have had some quality issues with maybe corks. When I purchased this wine in 2015, It definitely needed some rack time. So I put it on the shelf. I generally try to put most of the reds I buy on the shelf for 5 to eight years. For the bottles that have survived, I would rate at 93+ for the others, I poured them out. At this point I have poured 2 of 10 bottles out. The bottle we consumed last night was beautiful, with soft tannins and a delicious medium long finish. If I hadn’t had the spoiled bottles, I would say from last nights bottle that it had at least another three years on the shelf. Instead, I f you have this on the shelf, I recommend consuming soon.

  Corsé et capiteux.
  Des prunes et des mures avec un peu
  d`épices. Les tannins sont serrés et un
  peu asséchant.
  Finale longue sur la chauffe.

  12/5/2020 - Toasty Oak Likes this wine:

  A boldly aromatic, New World style wine with aromas of ripe plum (almost plum sauce), licorice, herbs and mushroom. The palate is lively, with fresh acidity and velvety tannins. The finish is long and tapers out with a note of dried fig and black tea. 55% Grenache / 45% Syrah. Produced exclusively for the American market.

  Popped and poured. Remains youthful and firm, but with plenty of underlying fruit. Could benefit from additional time in the cellar.
