Big and beautiful. Can go many years due to acid going strong. Went through many changes over 4 hours, decanted for an hour. Enjoyed the 08 skyline a bit more a few months back, more polished and lush- preferences. This was more burly and spicy.

Muted cherry, plum and dried berry fruit is nicely complemented by tertiary notes that linger. Harmonious with modest depth and complexity. Has the balance and still a bit of tannin to last a while but I'm happy with my decision to pop this now. 93-94. @Naschmarkt Palo Alto.

Delicious dark cherry, earth, and spice on the nose and savory palate with refreshing acidity on the long finish. Simply delicious!

Great wine fully ready to go. Deep purple fruit, complex and long.
