Zin night. (Vytauaras): Past its prime. Would undoubtedly best others from the same vintage, but does not compare to newer releases. Plum and molasses dominate.

Still pretty dark and purply. Lots of back fruit on the nose with a little spice. Fruit on the palate. Has softened. Prob near the end of best drinking window but still definitely enjoyable.

Aroma of gamey black pepper, tobacco and black olives with undertones of dark fruits. Taste of black currants, black pepper, tobacco and meat. Long, spicy finish.

Still very rich fruit but more subtle than younger vintages.

What a fruit bomb. This was a great pairing with a chocolate fountain dessert.
