Saturday, June 12, 2010 - At San Antonio vertical. I found this vintage on par by quality to 1999 and 2004 as I tend to like the more traditional years. This wine has a unique profile. Very rich and sweet with some evident alcohol, Cali style with some lilacs. Only wine of the night I got plums on the palate along with chocolate, vanilla, tar, black fruit, and oak. However, the wine has very good minerality, which gives the wine much more depth despite its richness. Very nice finish with melting tannins and decent acidity.
