Medium light red, with brown edges. Funky, a bit musty as well, red fruit, cherry and berry and some old oak and earthiness. Nice aged wine flavours and a bit of a dried out finish.
Seemed like maybe early 90s. Very good showing.

Nose is tropical fruit reduction, sweet vanilla, and a hint of leather. Nice acidity, light bodied. On the palate, strawberry rhubarb, coconut, tangy red berries, brown sugar.

Echoing some recent notes, this was a real pleasure. Fresh, with nice acidity. Gobs of sweet vanilla and tropical flavors; earth. Nose is intoxicating.

Meat, teriyaki, and coconut stand out among a huge and complex bouquet. Seamless, mature oak with plenty of vanilla and tropical flavors mingling with soft tannins and juicy acidity. Quite powerful for its age and holding together marvelously. Extracted and deep, a great joy to drink.

Probably a bit past peak, but smooth and tasty.
