Great wine that I have kept longer than I should have. Due to that fact I won't give a review as it will be biased against. Suffice to say that it is still a great wine 3 years after the recommend drink date although it has a very soft finish. Great color and nose of berries. Happy New Year!

I thought it was going to be hopeless. This bottle had been through a lot, coming to the UK and most likely cooking in the moving container, not to mention postponing its opening near the end of the recommended drink date, but it held up very nicely indeed. Wonderful nose to palate balance. Unctuous black cherry flavour with a slight leather backdrop deepening the experience in the mouth. Soft tannins. Lovely med- long finish. A very nice blend from a great winery!

Wow, that's delicious. Showing age, but still enjoyable. PNP. Just ordered 2 more bottles from the gray market.

A good wine, ripe fruit but no finish... probably kept this one too long.
