  - Garnet color with fast forming legs. It's somewhat balanced and has flavours of raspberry with a medium body. Leathery texture with a short finish.

  My last bottle of this and this was absolutely wretched. It smelled like crap and had tons of burning heat throughout. Really went down hill since my last bottle over 5 years ago, which I quite enjoyed.

  Bought this about 5 years ago for my in-laws, in an effort to build a small stock of wines for them... and noticed it still in their basement as we visited for Thanksgiving. Obviously, they were excited to have it.
  
  In any case, it has held up and aged well. Ruby garnet color. Nose of liqueur like cherry and raspberry, with pepper and herbs. Similar in the mouth, with a surprisingly smooth texture, and a brace of peppery tannins. Medium-long finish.

  Some nice funk on the nose, but thin in the mouth with the tannins dominant a bit too quickly for me. I'm going to check on this tomorrow as I bet it will have resolved itself. My initial reaciton is this should benefit from another few years of cellaring.
