Marked by hard, firm tannins, this is a dry, astringent wine. It has a nice core of cherry and cassis flavor, but the tannins reprise on the finish, sending the wine into lockdown mode. Decanting and rich, marbled beef will help to resolve the toughness.——S.H.(6/1/2008)—— 88

Re-released at nearly six years of age. One sniff is all you need to know there’s a lot of new, toasted oak here. It’s a big, dark, extracted wine, and also a very tannic one, with a deep core of ripe blackberry and blueberry flavors. Despite its age, it still needs time. Best to let it come around by, say, 2008. ——S.H.(10/1/2005)—— 91
