  Still very dark and meaty and smoky. It’s at end of life though.

  Great wine. Much better than the '07. Juicy black raspberry, pepper, tar, smoke and olive tapenade. Needs about an hour to open. Deep, complex and a bargain at $25. Great QPR. Could cellar for years yet. Drink or hold.

  Very good methinks - meaty, chewy, smoky, bunker in Syrah. Based on the average reviews I was expecting less. This still has another several years in it, but it's another BD success.

  Too over extracted for my taste.
