Still really youthful in 2005. Approachable but needs 3 more years to reach prime. Excellent.

This is fabulous! I love this wine and probably should have bought more. Very fruit forward, plum, cherry, black fruit, mineral. This will age extremely well, I think.

Can't score this. It was bad. It didn't appear to be corked but was oxidized. It had a sherry like flavor. Poured it out after trying it on three different occasions.
