96 Points

Wednesday, August 26, 2009 - My last tasting of this wine was four years ago, and it has certainly improved since then. In short, what a fantastic bottle of wine. Ready to drink 15 minutes after pulling the cork, this was singing. Fully resolved tannins, great fruit concentration, silky velvety in the mouth with a long finish. Cocoa, some tobacco, cedar, sweet rich. This was fantastic. Drinking great now, with much life ahead.
