Ditto the earlier comments except that with age it has developed a little more finesse in the different red berry and light floral notes. Still retains tartness.

Flickinger Tasting at The Casino (Chicago, IL): There's something here that reminds me just a bit of young 2008s -- the combination of red fruit, coarse tannins, and relatively high acids. This is quite elegant, but the palate's a bit simple and lacking in the stuffing to give this more interest.

Flickinger Customer Appreciation Tasting (Casino Club - Chicago IL): Tasting, brief note. Lean red berries and earth hints. Also a leaner, structured finish that is nicely finessed for its level. Cellar for at least another couple of years.
