  Better than I remember it. Still quite youthful, but showing well.

  Agreeable leather and some smoke on the nose. Very bright and vibrant wine. Finishes with full plum flavors. Not sure if additional aging will benefit this wine.

  Wonderful cocoa powder aroma, with a touch of cedar and cherry color aroma. Deep dark red color, thick and jammy texture with soft tannins after one hour. No decant.
  Flavors of Dark berry fruit flavors, blackberry - plum - currant with a nice cherry finish and a touch of black pepper. Great Value.

  At 14.9% its a bit too "big" for my taste, and a very different flavor profile from the 2010, which was great.
  After 2 bottles I'm still not a big fan of the 2014. I'll hold my third bottle for a few years to see if it improves.
