Wednesday, January 5, 2011 - Had two bottles on this: one a dud and one a star. This rating based on the star. Both were meaty as hell showing loads of beef blood and tobacco; however one was a dud on fruit, and one was a dude on fruit. I'm a sucker for ripe, sweet fruit balanced with beef blood, so I could see this approaching 94 points.
Long, full, savory and broad in the mouth.
Continue enjoying this one over the next ten years. 92+ -JS
