Slight oxidation on the nose, evidenced by some port cella ring in the cork, however it still holds it own - on the palate it is well balanced between the wood and fruit - tannins are open and ready to drink - if storage had been better it would be interesting to have seen what this was like.
But I enjoy it never-the-less and looking forward to having it with my veal chop :)

Huge wine that has somewhat softened since release. Dark cherry, currant, spice, Camel light, and blackberry. Pretty good this evening.
