  Good not great. Decanted for 2hrs. Alcohol came through and not as fruit forward as expected.

  Believe this is listed as both Meyer and Hestan Meyer so posting notes to both. Brought as a mystery wine to a Purlieu and Memento Mori tasting (young monster 15-16s) - 2+ hour decant certainly helped as it was exceptionally smooth drinking w/air, loads of deep dark jam-berry and cassis fruit with mocha and tarragon finish. Crowd was impressed and few could guess other than vintage and Napa. Found for $50 so pleased w/QPR. May last 1 - 3 more years but no need to delay the enjoyment.

  Color:
  Nose: Blackberry and Currant; Similar to Merlot
  Taste: Heavy Blackberry and Jammy Currant Upfront; Mocha Middle and Big Tannins with Acidic Finish; Dark Chocolate Lingers with Mocha and Pepper Spice; Aeration Totally Mellows the Finish and Smooths the Acidity and Brings the Fruit to Attention
  Comp's: Good Pop and Pour Wine with Heavier Meats; Mellowed with Air and Time; Similar to Valley Fruit in the $40-60 Range
