Over the top. Still very very good. Will degrade now quickly.

Much more open then when I had this in 2011. The bitterness is gone and the fruit is shining through as well as the balance and mouthfeel.

Delicious. Benefits from air. Full-bodied lush wine that is integrated and not overpowering. Big finish.

Amazing, and drinking very well now. Tons of fruit and chocolate; perfectly balanced.

Great show. Mega-flattering. Pure velvet. Not normal in Californian reds.
