Boy, this was pretty damn good. Did not take formal notes but it seemed fresh, still young in tones and just really stacked up for a good road ahead. With so little of it made, and I have tasted it twice now, for those of you still owning the few mags out there, hang on, age it and I think you got a real damn nice wine ahead.

Studio Restaurant (@ The Montage Resort In Laguna Beach): Drank from a magnum. This was the second last wine, after all of the syrahs and pinots had preceded it so my notes are tailing off at this point. Big nose and really not showing any age, reminding me of a young wine, say a 2003 or 2004 so it seems to be holding up quite well. The finish also seemed tight and I am certain this wine was decanted by the sommelier so my opinion here is let this wine go a lot longer.

Enjoyed on Thanksgiving Eve. Best drinking Schrader wine out there. Was a crime to open; only 300 produced and this is infanticide. Stunning fruit.
