The oak has really held on and is supportive, some nice density and flesh too

Beautiful at 10 years. Low alc in a hot year--good mid palate weight with spiced finish. Food pairing ideas abound!

Powerful, full on fruit here, concentrated blackcurrant, cassis, sweet liquorice and vanilla. Bit of an oak monster though with a fair bit of texture to it.

A wonderful wine for a special birthday dinner at home this evening. Went incredibly well with ribeye, filet, and shrimp. Enjoyed sharing it with the family.
