Dark purple color. Lots of vanilla on the nose along with some blue fruit. Taste follows nose with plenty of vanilla, blueberries, black currants. This is really one-dimensional and lacks any complexity, even after a decade of time.
I really don't know why this wine receives so much praise. It's alcoholic fruit juice. If you like fruit bombs with tons of oak this may be for you. Definitely not my style.

I've had a few bottles of Bootleg, and I've never been disappointed. This is drinking very well right now, although there's still considerable heat to the finish. A few hours of decanting does this wine well.
Inky purple color. Loads of blueberries and blackberries on the nose. Attack matches the nose but also introduces some herbaceous notes. Mid palette and finish are much more herbaceous mixed with some espresso notes.
This wine is big, bold, and hedonistic. Looking forward to opening another bottle in a year!
