  Drinking wonderfully now. Still great color, still decent tannins. BYOB bottle, decanted at Hero Ranch with steaks. Great nose of licorice and plums. Elegant finish... Earthy, silky well integrated finish w slight truffle tones.

  The last of the 09's, this wine is absolutely delicious. Takes easily 3 hours before it starts to really express, even the 09. Pours a dark maroon into the glass. The nose is black licorice, blackberry, and flint. The entry is gravelly blackberry, mint, acidity still present. The middle is where this one starts to pick up some fig jam. The finish is dark, deep, interlaced, with a lot of integration that has already occurred here. Tannin on the finish, which were softer and dusty. This wine itself is just a treat, although it may come across as being a little "thin" if you don't give it the appropriate time. Definitely not your pop and pour wine. This one is big, deep, dark, and balanced, and ready for action if you have the time. Drink by 2025.
