  Wonderful balance, still plenty of life left. My last one. Winery notes said prime drinking 21-23. I wish I had held them all. Best one yet.

  Drinking very one dimensionally now. Very fruity with tart cherry forward, perhaps some blackberry. Acidity is noticeable. Tannin not showing. Will likely maintain itself a few more years. No clue whether it will improve from this point.

  Decanted for 60 minutes.
  
  Color cherry red to slighter darker cherry red.
  
  Alcohol Medium to medium-high at over 14%.
  
  Nose: Sour Cherry and some plum, slight hint of baking spices.
  
  Mouthfeel medium body, light.
  
  Taste: Sour Cherry with some other red fruit. Quite fruity with a hint of baking spice. Not very well balanced with missing acidity and needs some more tannin. Compared to other reviews perhaps I waited too long to drink. Would have liked to have some mineralogy and acidity to balance the fruit.
  
  Overall: Drinkable and if it were $15-20 would be a decent wine. At $48 would expect more.

  Decanted for 30 mins - showed slight improvement for doing so. Dark cherries, hint of cocoa, even cola perhaps. Smooth mouthfeel. Very enjoyable. Paired fantastically with a pork chop.

  Good wine, not my style. Although it was left out overnight and was still quite good the next evening. The wine that comes from this fruit is a bit more California Pinot in style than I prefer.
