Bottled showed a very rich, perfumed nose. Consistent bricking throughout. Palate was somewhat monolithic, with big leathery tannins and ample secondary flavors. Plum/prune notes dominated. Feel like the wine has passed it's prime. drink up.

too brown. muted notes of rose, earth, and tar. red cherry, tangy red berry and oak. tannic finish. is this slightly tainted? perfectly stored since 2003.

Tasted muddy and old - clearly a flawed bottle
