Opened and decanted for about 30 minutes before trying. Got busy with dinner and didn't have any more for about 30 more minutes. Overall, being 7 years old, it was still quite fresh with a great deal of fruit. It had a nice balance and depth to it. Quite Meaty. I thought it was good on it's own, but when I had it with the rich and savory house made spaghetti sauce with sausage, it really was great. I think they had about 4 bottles left of this vintage when I got it a few weeks ago. Looking forward to the next Wine Club Shipment as it will have their 2016 in it.
