  Still a very enjoyable bottle of wine, but possibly past its peak, losing a bit of its fullness. Memories of a lovely tasting experience at the winery are still vivid…

  Decanted a portion for about an hour, also slow oxidized the rest over a few days. Did not need much time to open. Dark ruby and touch of garnet color. Dried cherry and cranberry and raspberry on the nose. Ripe cherry, plum, red cassis, pepper on the palate with about 30-35 sec finish.

  Popped and poured. Domino thought she detected TCA but I, nor anyone else, picked up on it. Red plum and cedar tones. Integrated tannins.

  My Bad. I left this one in the wine cellar too long. (2007 Vintage).
  The cork broke up during opening. Otherwise, it was not bad.
