I believe we caught this '04 at the tail end of its lifeline. The nose was aggressive with alcohol upon opening but settled throughout the next few hours. It did not turn but I could note the flavors were almost prune-like. There were moments where I caught the characteristics of the concentrated Zinfandel vines but they were few and far between. I wish we opened this a few years ago.
