This needed time in the glass to open up and even then was not too forthcoming showing restrained, refined brambly fruit even then, it lacked some freshness. Did not really "sing" for me!

Nose of cedar, menthol, characoal, black fruit, ... bright acidity (a hint too much to my taste), crushed red berries, tannins a bit present, too fresh for my taste... I would not be surprized if Luis love s it more than me! Goes well with food

Initially very concerned on the nose. A ton of funk on the nose. But it blew off quickly and the wine drank beautifully. It drank incredibly.

Domaine Wine Storage Saturday BYOB (Domaine Wine Storage (Chicago)): Subtle aromas. Some light green herbs, softer palate. Some structure left. Very nice and elegant.

Saturday Afternoon at Domaine (Domaine Wine Storage - Chicago, IL): The sappy fruit was still there, but just muted...from age. Lots of plum, tar, earth and spice. Still a bit too sappy for me, but it was cool seeing what age can do for these.
