Faded ruby/browned color, thinned at the rim. Nose of old cherry, damp earth. Palate of sour cherry, forest floor. Amazingly (at least to me) this continued to evolve in the glass - I thought it was gone but rallied and showed better 90 minutes in. Picked up deeper fruit, some brown sugar.
I would not have guessed this wine would have aged like this. My experience with is this wine as a solid red sauce wine...this showing demonstrated some longevity. While past its prime, still fun to drink
