Very nice wine that borders on simple. The flavors of currant, cherry and berry are very nice and the tannins are well integrated. I don't think this has enough to cellar more than a couple years.

This is well integrated, but has become somewhat simple. Nice cherry and berries with a little mocha and currant. Let breathe for 15 minutes. Little to gain. This is fading. Drink now.

Very well integrated structure with some fading fruit. Plum, cassis, earth and currant are still present and won't last very much longer. Drink now.
