Opened and poured with rustic sausage and kale soup, etc. A bit acidic, with lots of sediment and a crumbly cork. Still a deep ruby core with some slight bricking. A dusty, yet full flavored wine showing no signs of overt oxidization or flaw. Lots of cherry, dusty cedar, red licorice, leather. Quite solid for a wine legally able to drink by itself. Has held up quite well.
