Dark black fruit on the nose with hints of black licorice and loam. Pallet was a bit light and thin. Black fruit was there but the oak dominated. A touch green. Tannins were soft. Did not come around, even with some decanting time. Simply past its prime. But not offensive. Thank You Ron B!

Still super young. Great balanced red fruits and balanced acidity. Still hiding a little behind some heavy toasted oak but still shows incredibly well.
