Beautiful and complex wine right now...Black cherry, blackberry, and dark plum fruit. Rich, dense core of tobacco, black licorice, dark chocolate, earth, and toasty oak. Still has some firm chewy tannins, good acidity, and extremely long finish. Great now after a nice long decant but this will easily go another decade after 16+ years of age.

Drinking well but still lots of life ahead. Nice aromas and flavors, dusty/gritty tannins.

Wow this is a great wine. Paired with a dry aged bone in ribeye at Cliffs Steakhouse. This wine saved a bad steak dinner. Many years left!!!
