Peppery, currant on nose and a little alcohol all around. Leather in the secondary, a very enjoyable wine. Having with steak and good friends. — 7 years ago

Like drinking this wine a little bit younger. Shows more Brett and less fruit as it ages in bottle and the raspy tannins show. Still a great wine
