Drank in vertical comparison to 2011. This is not ready. Qualities of green stock. Much prefer the fruit forward qualities of the 2011 or the 2009 Estate by comparison. Hopefully remaining bottles will benefit from more cellar time.

Decanted 5 hours. Drank over 3 hours more. Could have used even more time. Nice front to back. Continued to get better with time.

Did vertical with the 2010. Must say I prefer the fruit qualities of the 2011. Good balance front to back. Signs that will get better with time.
