A ruby / garnet coloring when poured. The first initial 30 minutes revealed a wonderful aroma and flavors of cherry, raspberry along with some brambly notes. Then the wine faded fast into dried fruits, hints of raisin and some tannins that reappeared. Drink quickly!

A nice ruby / garnet coloring. Flavors and aromas of red fruit particularly cherry. A much more harmoniously balanced bottle than earlier tastings, but probably at its peak.

A bright ruby coloring. Didn't decane and bottle had a small amount of sediment. The primary aroma and flavor was that of red fruit, mostly black cherry. In addition there was a brambles flavor that disapated with time leaving a smooth glass of wine. Solid and competently made but nothing special

Good fruitiness with raspberry and a bit of strawberry. Still nice, bright color. Good mouth feel and good balance of acidity. Not overly complex, and the finish is a bit short. No reason to wait if you're holding on to these.

Similar to 5.5.12 note except it lingered longer in the bottle. Rated slightly higher than previously.
