Drunk in SoCal. Med red to mahogany. Some bottle stink so I decanted, which helped. Nose has ripe cherry, sour cherry. There is ripe cherry, raspberry, athletic frame ( ie flesh and solid structure), very lively. Very good concentration and good length. These wines just age faster in this hot climate.

Structured, tight, dark(ish) fruit, very well put together but not showing a lot on day 1. On day 2 this has really opened up nicely, with some spice and florals. Very enjoyable, but IMHO this needs at least another five years. Very good, but too early.

Red and dark fruit, with some damp earth and spice. A bit rustic, but has some length and complexity. Ready now, but no rush.

In a very nice spot. Lots of energy and starting to show some complexity.
