  Much improved compared with the prior bottle. This one had thrown tremendous amount of sediment in large lumps. Has lost some baby fat and the fruit is more expressive. This is a beast of a wine which has matured just now and has enought acidity and tannin and ripe fruit to drink well for a decade. Easily has potential to improve more to a higher score. Kudos!

  Focused with acid plus but still a bit angular. Lacks delicious factor.

  Black and Bing chewy nose with some notes of menthol and tar. Full silky palate with cherry, pomegranate, rosemary notes. A very nice full bodied wine that’s showing very well and seems to have at least 5 years ahead.

  No detailed notes, but well integrated - smooth combination of black fruits, a bit dusty, medium finish. Overall, an enjoyable wine with grilled meat.
