Still hanging in there, but just barely. Hot and ripe, but still enjoyable in a hedonistic sort of way.

This wine was surprisingly delicious. Time had rounded out all the hard edges and it had wonderful balance, very fruit driven, but with nice structure to support it. Not as complex or intellectual as the top wines in this category, but this was undoubtedly a crowd pleaser.
