I bought a case of this at HDH wine many years ago. I tried it a few times over the years and it was not ready (super mineral) and I have started opening these and I think they are ready. Not the most integrated wine, but delicious.

What a treat from a good friend. Still holding on impeccably. This is venison stew in a glass...

Maybe I'm sentimental but I just love this wine... still a youthful opaque purple with no bricking - layered / complex nose of red & blue fruits, but stewed but intertwined w/licorice & licorella (ha). Great chewy tannins w/out being clumsy - evolved in glass had us shouting out aromas all night - what a special wine.
