This is a good one. Smooth and licorice attacking your senses. Velvety is the right word. The tannins have resolved nicely at this point. This is ready to drink and I don't see it improving much from here, but of course I can be wrong.

My last bottle but it has most assuredly hit it's peak. Fully integrated tannins with supple dark fruit and a long delightful finish. We finished the bottle and wished for more.

Not too bad. Reasonable balance as there was acidity and tannin that held things together. The fruit was present, but not overwhelming like many Napa cabs. With a big meal its reasonable to drink now, but likely still has several years of life.

Lovely balance with lots of dark fruit and depth. At its peak probably.
