Versé en carafe à fond plat, laissé décanté durant 2 heures. Le vin est beaucoup plus souple qu'il y a un ans. Les arômes sont de fruits mûrs, de cerises noires, de fumée, de vanille, arômes subtiles de réglisse noire. Le vin vieillit très bien. Ça sera une par année, pour les 4 prochaines années.

This was a pretty awful wine - the type of wine where I just opted not to choke down more than a few sips. Super overextracted fruit with just crazy amounts of sugar. It was like drinking pixie stix mixed with artificial fruit juice. There was no balancing acidity or tannin to support. No other flavors. I'd avoid. Ordered off the by the glass menu at Bobby Van's and waiter did not steer me correctly. Wonder when ppl talk about the Caymus 40 being a fruit bomb if it's as bad as this.

At PNP, the oak monster was in full attack (and I tend to like oak). The next day, and over the next few days of slow ox, the oak integrated well. Full bodied, aroma of fruits and a little earth, and a decent med+ finish with smooth tannins. Drinking well now, just be aware of the oak at first.

Encore très bon. Il me reste une bouteille du B7 et je vais attendre une année ou deux avant de la réessayer. L'acidité et les tannins y sont encore.

A nice cross-vintage blend. Assertive fruit up front followed by a rich finish but concluding with some sour notes.
