Monday, February 13, 2012 - Still purple with red rim. Not closed but nose dominated by the pencil shavings, cedar and graphite thing. Same in the mouth, although it has a couple of bitter notes that softened after a couple of hours. Medium tannins and acidity (could have done with more).
I was a little disappointed with this - I guess I was expecting more. I have the 08/09/10's and not sure how they'll compare.
