From a well stored bottle. Smokey and liquorous with dark berry and liqueured berry notes. Outstanding nose! Taste full and rich, completely resolved. Drink up but no hurry.

with duck from grill at Rudy and Jenny's. Bought this as part of the vertical offer 06 thru 11. Also brought the 07. This had lost its luster. It was still a wine but it wasn't vibrant. Color still good, nose a bit flat even with a two hour decant. On palate decent fruit but no spark. The 07 had developed better and has some life left.

This was really nice tonight. Better than the Jada '09 Jersey Girl (Syrah), and the McPrice Myers '09 "Beautiful Earth" we had before it.... It has mellowed and should probably be consumed soon but is still drinking beautifully.
