  Opened and poured immediately, served with prime rib. Surprisingly good though much of the fruit had retreated, leaving behind strong oak and the spicier flavors. Notes of cinnamon and pipe tobacco were dominate, lingering vanilla and raspberry. All tannins gone, incredibly smooth. Drink five years ago, definitely drink now, enjoy it before its gone.
