Three Flights, With Pairings (Red Barn, Santa Ynez): It took a while for a mold-like funk to blow off. Mature, but also a touch austere, with restrained red fruit and a touch of green, true to the vintage.

Cork was very dry, crumbled on opening. Wine seems a little thin. Good nose, aerated the first glass to see if it would open up but it hasn't really. Good mouth feel, still some black cherry left, but definitely on its way out. Drink it now if you still have it.

Very integrated tannins - lovely fruit, some earthiness on the nose, medium to long finish. Very enjoyable - wish I had more.
