  Sad deal, Drinkable but slightly off. Might have faired better with decanting or more time, but doubt it.

  Big Reds at Keens (Keens Steakhouse, 72 W. 36th Street, NYC): Opened, but not decanted a restaurant with my wine group. It tasted much younger than I expected for a 2009 Napa. Big bodied, a very fragrant nose, and a long finish. Great still youthful fruit.

  Hints of orange at the rim. Black fruits and minerals in the nose 2hours open lush across the palate to a medium finish. Some tannins still to soften. Drink now with steak ir you can hold for several more years. Will try again next year

  Decanted for an hour. Cassis some tobacco on nose. Fruit still present. Very smooth not much tannins. Ending was shorter than i would expect

  At Boston Wine & Poker, Needham, July 17, 2022: (Tasted blind). Lovely. It has a mouth-watering savory quality and a lot of energy. A pleasure to drink now but will doubtless last for eons.
