Tasted over 2 hrs -saturated med dark red no bricking -fragrant dark berry tar iodine -med/med- acidity gives just enough energy, med weight fading dark berry mineral reduction, med/med- chalky tannins -while starting to decline this is really quite nice without being overly ripe/hot/sweet, decent evolution over 7 years but its sweet spot was probably about 2-3 years ago

Disappointed in this one, not sure if this was an off bottle or if the fruit has faded to the point that the alcohol has taken oven. This was a hot mess with nothing similar to previous bottles.
