  Blind. Very dark, good clarity but nearly opaque. Has a bit of razzle flavor, strong on the attack. Heat noticeable. This was a pop and pour, decant would certainly help.

  Served double-bind (#5) and enjoyed over the following 3 hours at a CT offline. Dark red fruits, with a slightly woody, rustic character about it. In all fairness, I'll reserve final judgement as this needs another year in the bottle or a thorough decant of at least 90 minutes. Right now, it's just not working for me; it might never get there, either. I'd be happy to see the 08 or the 10. Drink thru 2017
