Opinions about wine differ greatly as the experience is subjective. You may find it helpful to compare this critical evaluation of the wine with mine as well as your own:

Shower: Lorna and John
It’s up to you whether you want to add this rich, ripe, balanced, chocolate-accented wine to your cellar, or enjoy it this spring with bold braised-meat dishes. Either will work, because the structure is there for 4-6+ years of cellaring, but it’s also completely approachable now. Whatever route you take in this delicious dilemma, you won’t be disappointed.
