Let sit another 3+years and it opened-up a little, but never really developed. Solid wine, but expect more from Arrowood's Monte Rosso Cabernet. Let it sit in the decanter before drinking.

Brought to dinner by friends. Opened this up after the Spanish wine. Medium to full-bodied, it had a very smooth mouthfeel, with rich, dark berry and cassis fruit and some vanilla oak. Bit of minerality on the lingering finish. Lovely structure with firm but mellow tannins, great balance between the fruit and acidity, just an elegant delicious wine.

Loved this bottle and in a really nice place right now. Great balance, long finish. Paired with smashed burgers.

This needs to sit longer, but wonder how much it will evolve. Very tight right now, even with a couple of hours in the decanter.
