this is still a drinkable wine with some tannin and medium-bodied...but definitely starting to age...most of the fruit, acid, and complexity is gone making the drinker feel like something is missing....but intellectually fun to drink given its age

Very dark in every way; very ripe fruit, dark and dense; still quite concentrated but with secondary notes that leave one looking for fresher fruit. While I like mature wines, this lacks complexity to justify the aging this has been given. Merely good plus. Especially for this price point.

Inky garnet color with notes of pine needle, chocolate and black fruits. Velvety tannins; full-bodied. Red fruit tones dominate, but there's also hints of chocolate and spice.

Well past its prime. Good finish but not much substance, no fruit left.
