4th Saturday Brown Bagger (J&S’s): Double blind. Deep color. Reticent at first, black fruit, vanilla and blue fruit notes are eventually coaxed out. There's a brown sugar element as well which reminds me a bit of TRB cabs. Full-boded, with fine tannins and flavors of black fruit, oak spice and vanilla. Guessed Napa cab sauv. (J&S)

What a monster! As I was hoping it would be, Petit Verdot aged in all new French Oak. The parts are there, floral, spice, blackest of the fruits, tannins, and vanilla. But seriously, this isn't ready. I'd say wait at least 2 more years.
