  Decent but well past it's prime. Significant bricking and sediment. Nose a little muted as fruit fading. Balanced although short finish. Would have been better in it's earlier years.

  Think this wine is past its prime; Nose has some dried fruit and a hint of leather, while the palate still has some sweet red fruits and licorice that makes this decent; However, it falls apart on the clipped finish, with a slight astringency underneath the fully resolved tannins

  Soft mouthfeel but with some nice spice. Pronounced earthiness. Very enjoyable and easy to drink. Just passed the top of the drinking curve--there are some subtle notes of madeira. Gorgeous, complex nose.

  A bit too much tannins but had wonderful notes of dark berries, leather, tobacco. Medium finish.

  Tannins have mellowed over time. Earthy, cider, but it is fading.
