Upon opening it was two dimensional: fruit on the front tend and tannins on the back end. After an hour it was flat. Finished a glass with dinner and poured out the rest. It was very disappointing - especially for a reserve. If you have any, drink it now if you can. Note mine was stored in a cellar at 55 degrees.

Robust and tannic, with good acidity, yet oddly silky on the front end. Loads of black fruit. Probably at its peak, but should go strong for 5 more years at least.

Very purple in the glass. The fruit will last many more years, but the wine may not. Nice enough aroma, green peppers and vanilla. Similar flavors, with a slight oak and floral feel. Medium finish before it goes flat. Overpriced.

Concentrated, tannic, and a bit flat. Great on the front palate, but fades as it goes down.
