  Popped and poured. This is a very dark red, trending to black, wine; it stains everything. On the nose, I get gravel, blackberry, blueberry, and a touch of heat. In the mouth, this is still very structured with deep layers of flavor that take some work to reach; the 25% Petit Verdot in the blend makes its presence known. The finish has some big, black fruit with a touch of road tar. Overall, this is a distinctive wine. I think it is as ready as it will get. It is not as obnoxious as I feared it would be. 91 points.

  In fine form. Decanted for about 3 hours and the wine opened up nicely. A big, jammy blend with lovely structure. Likely still has several years left in the bottle but perfectly wonderful right now.

  PnP. Massive fruit bomb. Nothing very exciting.

  PnP. Plum, currant, herbs. Full bodied, nice finish. Silkly smooth. Still has a few years of life.
