Pop and pour, probably should have decanted as it relaxed over the course of dinner. Uncommon blend with 30% Petit Verdot. Black, deep black fruits, very ripe and extracted, meaty palate is interesting but just too ripe and over the top. Short finish. It did relax after an hour or so, but was never really "there" for me.

Cherry, round taste. PV at ~30% not all that prominent.

Perfect wine for tonite. Not a wimp and not overpowering. Full bodied. Wonderful blend of tastes.

Great cool-climate Washington Red. Full-bodied, black fruits, drinking well now.
