Raisins, acid, not much else, way past it's prime. Opened a second bottle to see if it was just an off bottle but the second bottle was almost identical. There is most likely enough bottle fluctuation around that some of you may have a good bottle but my recommendation would be not to buy and drink up if you have it (and feel it's drinkable). We couldn't drink either bottle.

Wine of the night. A wonderfully rich, and complex nose. Dark purple color. On the palate, rich, complex, deep, dark fruits, with a subtle hint of sweet, and a lingering finish. This is very, very good. Young, but good. This has a magic finish. Teeth staining. It has that subtle magic thing, which I often associate with great Italian wines. Even better in 10 years. It has the right stuffing.

Still drinking well, with a solid core of fruit and good depth. Very enjoyable over the course of the evening.

Very nice blend with serious structure and earthy undertones. Vibrant nose and long finish. Best with food to round it out. Lots of life left

Flashy red and black fruits. Creamy, voluptuous styling. Round, with fine tannins. Modern styling. Some vanilla notes. Enjoyable.
