Nice on it's own, even better with our grilled spice-rubbed flank steak. Bold and delicious upfront, with a balanced and softening finish. I only bought this bottle a few months back, have no idea how well the retailer stored it ... but this one certainly had several more years in it, maybe more. Wish I had a few more.

On the nose there's blackberries with a metallic tinge, peppery & dry cedar ~ The palate is full bodied with mouth coating tannins & flavors of blueberry jam, menthol & black currants ~ A rustic style with nice balance
