  Similar to prior notes, which is remarkable given its age. Fading slowly now. Drink up.

  Absolutely fantastic nose but the taste is old and tired.

  Slow-ox'd for an hour. Mulberry, blackberry, cigar box, and dust. Mature fruit flavors but still showing fine-grained tannins. My last bottle of a case but still showing plenty of life.

  Wonderful red fruits, smooth (almost silky), hints of spice and cassis. A very modest amount of sweet Oak. The wine might be a tad past its best, but this particular bottle would have shown very well for at least a couple more years.

  People at the table called this very Bordeaux like. I thought it was ok, nothing memorable. Has a bit of a creamy/oaky/dill element to the palate, along with black fruit. Rothmann's with Vinotas, the Wilfords and Roy H.
