  Not as inky dark for PS as I am used to--purple color leaning more towards blue than red. "Foliage" nose. Very subtle dark fruit on the tip of the tongue. Hints of multiple flavors--moccha, salinity, lime, anise. leather--but nothing leaps out "Chewy" mouthfeel. Still very noticeable and pucker-inducing tannin. Good wine, but not great.

  A visit to Enkidu (Enkidu): This seemed quite young. The bottle had just been open and I think it has potential to improve a couple of points. Black raspberries, dust, charred wood, dark chocolate. Very nice. Love the juicy acidity and texture. Lots of black raspberry fruit, earthy layers tightly packed. Long finish. Firm tannins at this point. Needs about 5 years IMO and be good for ten more after that, easy.
