Much better than expected. Raspberry, tobacco, a bit of currant and some sweetness. Perfect with beef fajitas.

Decided to open on this SuperBowl evening. Amazed at how full of fruit and tannins this 11 year old wine was. After a couple of hours opened the wine was more complex, the tannins had smoothed, though the wine had also thinned out just a tad. Suspect we are in its prime, and will likely drink my other two bottles soon.
