Had I bought this for $20 or $25, I would have been okay with it. But I paid $60 at the Chicago Wine Company, and it was pretty meh. Still some fruit, but out of balance and starting to be overcome by VA.

Nice, mature appearance; fragrant, mature nose, lovely depth, spices, blackberries, redcurrants, oak, vanilla, a cool gravel note; has lost some weight and there is a certain toughness to the otherwise elegant, supple and lightly creamy palate; lovely length.

Elegant, shapely, relatively slender but intense, aromatic, drinking perfectly.
