90 Points

Wednesday, December 23, 2009 - Medium body. Nose was initially dominated by oak, but a little bit of oxidation brought out the fruit; has great acidity and perfect ripeness. Redolent of aromas of compote, dried cherry, and some cola. The finish is a bit short. Overall this has outstanding balance. Drinking very well right now.

Update: On the third day (after being vacuum corked) this is still good, but with less fruit. Now it tastes like an average RRV PN. If you've got this bottling, I'd recommend consuming it by 2012.
