Much better on day 2 after being vacuvin’ed overnight. The combination of cab and Syrah has a rich nose with some pasture funk that actually reminds me of right bank Bordeaux. Plum and cassis flavors giving way to a distinct knot of tannin, suggesting this has plenty of room to run.

This bottle was open about four hours before drinking. It was still a bit tight and acidic. It is well crafted but even at six years, I’ll give my other bottle another couple years to rest.

Great after about 30 minutes open time. Showing ripe blue and red fruit, some pencil lead and mineral notes. Will improve with age.
