Let me start by saying that I love older wine. At 14 years this wine barely qualifies as an older wine however it begins to display notes only available in older wines.
The wine nose is all berries on the nose. Starts with blackberry, includes cherry, and finishes with sweet grape jam. In mouth the wine just takes off with sweet strawberry preserve at the start then tobacco leaf, then bell pepper than a dry cedar wood. The wine is fabulous and improves all thorough the finish.
I believe that Beringer Chabot Vineyard wines are worth finding and having. They represent great value and improving tasting notes.

Opened and decanted, saved some back on the bottle for 12 hours.
The wine has amazing favors, raspberries, blackberries, spice, hint of chocolate liquor and anise, finishes with some well integrated oak. A-
