Friday, September 12, 2008 - There is nothing hiding in here! Auction bottle, held about a year. Very pretty ruby color, and a vibrancy in the bouquet that shows ripe raspberry, spice and with time, mushrooms. Very big, balanced and grippy -- not a luscious or squishy ripe wine, it is a chewy blend that explodes and persists, all with great class and length. Comes across as strong, youthful and quite willing to go 15 rounds - or years. Try again in 2011.
