  This bottle was an orphan. Thought it might be undrinkable but the cork was firm and dry and the wine still fresh. Enjoyed by all.

  This is in a great drinking window right now, if you properly aged the wine. The wood, that was so predominate in the past, has been absorbed and the fruit is still there, creating a very satifying period where neither rules. The nose has nutmeg and cinnamon. The full, viscous palette doesn't eplode but lathers the tougue with apple, carmel and a feeling of fullness. We had this with a chicken breast that had been stuffed with greek seasonings, spinach and dijon mustard before being baked in the oven. Served with a baked sweet potato and apple, cabbage and onion compote it was a great dining experience. I think the wine is in it's prime and won't improve with additional aging. Drink up! Unfortunately, it was my last bottle - i wish I had more.

  This has lost the lush fruit but is still hanging on nicely. Last bottle and this was much better in the past 2 years. Unfortunately, the finish is now quite hot - just not enough fruit left to keep the balance. Lesson learned. Still nice but was best 2-5 years old.
