55F x nearly 20 years- Youthful dense purplish black - fresh lightly smoked pruneaux fruited nose - thick alcoholic and tannic still. Surviving and a real value cellar play though obviously not a timeless classic trophy.

55F since acquiring at release - clear black crimson - sweet flowers and dark fruits jump at Durand assisted corkpull of intact closure - always a good sign - ready almost billowing clean deep pure inexhaustible aromas of Agen pruneaux and drippingly ripe black cherries with a sweet fresh floral lift and a perfect espresso base all in a creamy velvety spicy tart lively verve-y vehicle.
An outstanding example of the value of cellar keeping. Well-cellared this gem currently resides in a long apogee. Congrats to those who have gone the mile with this one. Hard to put numbers on wines and art and people,etc. but I put a big number on it as other examples - perhaps not dutifully cellared or with closure failures, etc. have apparently not been as well received.

Agree with Grizzlywine just might add for those who dig herbal green freshness - it is there in the form of muddled moist spring grass - and the density of pigment and flavor concentration along with structure and style (?carbonic and noncarbonic blend?) makes this a doppelgänger for a solid fresh N Rhone syrah.
