Popped and poured. Drank much better after an hour in the glass. Very well balanced. Strong berries/currants. Not a big finish but a thoroughly enjoyable wine. Seems like a well cellared bottle could last a year or two more. Last bottle from a case - will definitely miss Roshambo.

- Garnet color. It has flavours of black currant, blackberry, and oak with a medium/full body. Somewhat angular texture with a moderate finish. Still has some strong tannins in the mid-palette with a bit of charcoal and light ash that masks the fruit on the finish.

Despite being a 2005, this wine is still holding up and I’m sad it’s my last bottle!

I have no idea where WE got a 93 from. This wine is out of sorts. The fruit hangs like a cheap suit over tannins of pressure treated fence posts.

Great reviews, but I couldn't get the subtleties from behind the fruit. Maybe a bit more time in the bottle.
