May 16, 2009 - Very good dry Bordeaux - I was surprised because it is still so young. I will buy more of this wine and cellar it for a few more years.

March 3, 2009 - Very smooth, particularly given its young age. Berries and chocolate on the palate, still noticeable tannins, particularly in the aftertaste. Went great with BBQ ribs.
