This wine has aged very well. The two grapes are one smooth juice. Still a little tannin. Some vanilla and forest floor. Ready to drink.

Wounderful vanilla aroma. Dark fruit. This wine fell apart after an hour. It's 2003. So drink now!!!

2003 vintage. Deep purple. Full on concentration. Leather and Earth, deep ripe plums and cherries, old oak, Black Forest cherries in alcohol. Blueberries. Dessicated. On the palate, high alcohol, medium minus acidity, medium tannins - very ripe. Quite long. Too big for me. Big. Drink now until 2025.
