Gave this an 89 but with barbecued ribs it was great, easily a 91. Scoring after dinner with the end of our glasses. Big blackberry nose, a little acidic blackberry, tobacco, blueberry on the pallet. Long finish. Really held its own against spicy ribs, excellent!

Decanted an hour before serving. Enjoyed tremendously on Thanksgiving. Black currant, blueberry, good acidity, nicely integrated tannins. Very enjoyable.

No notes taken. Brought to a barbeque at the home of some friends and served with a grilled flank steak. Delicious.
