absolutely fantastic wine and drinking great right now. everything is in check right now and possibly could be at it's peak. Smooth and great black fruit. great finish that lasts about 5 seconds. If you have it drink and you will be rewarded with a wonderful wine.

no decant on this one. it had a very woody profile at first. as it started to open, it started to blow off the woody quality. a lot of dark fruit and very integrated. i think this could go another year or two but not bad now.

This was really smooth. some cherry notes along with some mocha. the tannins are almost nonexistent at this point and I think the wine could be on it's decline. Starting to brink on the edges. If you have this still drink now. do not hold any longer.
