Nothing exciting. No real discernible characteristics worth noting. Wish I could say more.

Just outstanding. Big old tannins with dried fruit and gorgeous nose. Decant for an hour

Fresh style, not so seductive as the 2011 vintage..., still a nice wine!

This is drinking incredibly well right now. If you have a bottle, it's in a sweet spot right now. Rich, balanced and smooth.
