Still pure deep purple in color at age 10. Still fresh in the mouth with a lot of focus and energy. Deep dark blueberry and raspberry fruit, roasted meat, and floral influences. Has that lovely age-induced cedary edge, like walking into a fragrant barrel room. Some spice and dried herb notes too. Complex wine with good intensity from start to finish. - HK 2014-12-24
