Drinking really well right now. Very full bodied and complex. Nice light red fruits like raspberry that give way to more fuller fruits with a blackberry finish with hints of earthy tone. Very smooth.
Decanted for an hour and a half.

Poured immediately after opening. Surprisingly very open for such a young wine. Nose of smoke, leather, tobacco and dark fruit. Dark fruit and maybe some strawberry on the finish. Excites the sides of palate. Excellent finish. This wine was very well balanced and feminine for having such a huge nose.

Still lively, lithe and youthful. Lovely color, very little bricking. Deep black fruit flavors

Very disappointing compared to the 2006 which was really quite good . Has fruit but no structure or edge to it

Structural and full of complexity. Decent black fruit over shadowed by an earthy tannic backbone. Drink up ASAP.
