Had a slight funk that eventually blew off to reveal aromas of tea leaves, cedar, and pencil shavings. Unfortunately, slightly past prime, but still shows a medium body. Acids are all gone, and it is quite mellow. Flavors are still instructive, showing what was once ripe blackberry. Glad to try it!

Tea leaves - cedar - dried leather .. Perhaps 5-7 years past prime

Sadly, quite past it. Fruit has fallen away, leaving wood and tannin, though perhaps more mellow than that sounds. Instructive.
