Aged to perfection at this point. Earthy. still has a fair bit of acidity.

2004... good year for the Greeks. The Spanish? not as fortunate. But this. Well aged. Well balanced. Tobacco. Leather.

A point. Showing strawberries, dried cherries, leather, dried leaves, well integrated oak from toasty character and dill, all wrapped in a smooth texture. Elegant and classic.

Paired perfectly with foie grad topped burgers and the best sweetbreads I've ever had.

Not very good with a citrusy sweet dessert, but with some blue cheese and rye crackers it's very good. Still a tiny hint of restrained fruit left after 10 yrs. Relatively gentle but pronounced tannins with a mild long finish.

Earth driven, minor red fruit. Great balance between acid and tannin. American Oak exudes...

Spiced fruit on the nose including stewed peach, baked cherry as well as menthol, licorice, warm cinnamon, and barnyard funk. The palate is delightfully bright and vibrant featuring dark cherry, baked strawberry, cranberry, white pepper, black tea, leather, cigar box, and rhubarb. Medium plus tannins, medium alcohol, and high acid that builds through the finish. I’m left with peach cobbler a al mode, cherry pie, and strawberry shortcake with lingering leather, black tea, and tobacco notes. Excellent bang for the buck.

Mulled dark fruit, leather, tobacco, cocoa and oak. Well blended, smooth flavors with some of the boldness of youth fading. A perfect match with spicy Mediterranean olives.

Tart strawberry with a musty background of leather, tobacco, and cocoa. Chewy tannins and moderate acid in the finish. An excellent old world, medium bodied red.
