Pleasantly surprised at how well this one aged, was not expecting that at all. Still a lot of lush, dark fruit on this one. Nice by itself, better with food. Still a subtle kick of pepper on the finish.

Still a young wine probably needs to age more. Complex dark fruit flavors

Still a good wine but has lost some of the fruit. Still has the pepper punch though.

So enjoyable. Flavorful, big finish that lingers with tannins that last for days. This wine (and winery) are legit.
