  Decanted 1+hr
  
  Blackberry and crushed gravel on the nose, also high alcohol.
  
  Riper fruit, whole blackberry bunch, including the stem. Baking spices, anise, graphite, tobacco. Grippy tannins, med acidity.
  
  May not benefit from additional ageing. Would buy again.

  Concentrated, fruit forward with blackberry jam, mocha, milk chocolate - intense notes. Hints of lavender and spice on its super long finish. This is a classic Napa cult blend that is velvety smooth, soft and very enjoyable to drink.

  Blackberry, raspberry, cola, tea, and a touch of earth all in balance and showing well. Rounded tannins and just the right amount of acid to hold it all together. Long finish.

  Needs ample air time before consumption. 90 min - 2hours before
  first attempt. Nose was somewhat muted although the mid palate
  delivered beautiful blackberry, blueberry, and mulberry layers of
  fruit. Spice box with Polished tannin and the finish lasted wonderfully. Powerful Blend from historic site and historic vintage. Enjoy!

  decanted and drank over 2 hours. medium body, purple fruits, but not quite to the coffee/chocolate fruit profile. merlot here adds nice roundness and an easy drink. finishes with good spicebox.
