Saturday, May 23, 2009 - Gather round children......if you have this wine thank your lucky stars, I don't....so I hate u. Drank this tonight blind with our weekly wine group, brought by a member. Most of us guessed bordeaux, I went right bank...... and then quickly into hiding after it was revealed. I swore there was a good dose of merlot in this wine since it has some sweet red fruit. Delicious, beautiful nose of red fruit and leather, the oak is gone, tannins smooth, secondary characteristics, stored pristine since purchase. I drink napa young, but has made me thinking otherwise. I am going to let all mine age u should to!!!!!!!!!!!!
