Most of the ‘04 Greenie Meanies have faded, but so has some of the vibrancy of the black cherry fruit. This tastes older than 15 to me, though it is pleasant. B-

Opened to investigate if Greenie Meanies were resolving, but this had some definite pine needle meets oregano notes. Focusing on that takes away lots of enjoyment from what is otherwise a good wine- bright red fruits, nice structure with both moderate acids and smooth tannins, good finish. On next day it showed much less green. Day 1 B-, Day 2 B+

A bit on the light and delicate side. Pure fruit aromas of strawberry and raspberry. Some floral. Medium body, nice acidity, good lenght. The finish is a bit green/herbal, which is typical for the 04-vintage. Still young.

Probably not an optimal bottle. Very delicate red fruit in the beginning, but after 20 minutes the fruit fades a bit out.
