Holiday Lunch with Aniko, Kathy, and Derrald (Yan's China Bistro, Walnut Creek, Ca.): Nose of sweet and sour fruit, roasted turkey meat, forest floor, allspice, pepper, and a touch of plum, same on the palate, big body, very tasty, opened better and better during the 3 hour lunch, Cabernet Sauvignon drinkers Pinot Noir, rich, intensely concentrated fruit, and a long, long, long finish.

Nose of cedar, tobacco, leather and asphalt. Needed some air to lose a bit of stink but came together nicely in the glass with rich red fruit balanced by the wood.
