  September 16, 2013 - Winorama with a surprise (engagement)!; 9/15/2013-9/18/2013 (Napa Valley California): Tasted at the Cardinale winery. This was less approachable than the '09 - still very tannic and a bit tight. The shredded duck really helped bring out the flavors though. On the tongue it was just pure velvet with hints of fruit towards the end of the mouthful (unripe blackberries, maybe some black currants). Was a definite favorite of one of the folks at the table and by the end of the tasting might have become mine as well.
