Of the few bottles of this I recently got, this one has held together much better than the others. Deep ruby color, it’s drinking really well with ripe blackberry and black cherry, smoke, meat, and black pepper.

Clearly over the hill, but by no means dead. Super tertiary with some quiet black fruit in the background. Loads of black pepper and roasted meat. My local wine shop was kind enough to give me five bottles of this since they’d been sitting on for a while.

Yummy! Needs to breathe an hour or so. Freshly opened it seemed tangy, after an hour it had opened up to deep dark berries and cocoa. Not sweet, tannins were soft but not flabby. Really enjoyed it with spicy meatballs in brandy sauce and haricots verts.
