Wednesday, May 1, 2013 - Hmm. On the first night, there was nothing on the nose except oak (which is slightly weird for a wine with 1/3 new oak). Even after a few hours, nothing. On day 2, it opened up slightly, but mostly muddled black fruit. Not very good right now (or slightly corked).
EDIT: Thanks for replacing this Loren, really appreciate it. Tried another bottle and much better. Lots of black fruit and meatiness. Very enjoyable.
