Some browning on the edges suggests that the wine is showing some age. Bright fruit on the nose with pomegranate, cherry pie filling, and notes of truffle. The palate was silky with just the right balance of oak, acid, and tannins. Based on the color, I would suggest drinking over the next 5 years instead of trying to hang on.
