April 10, 2012 - Initially picked up something not quite right on the nose (reduction?), but when I checked back about 90 minutes after opening it had blown off. Now a nose of dark red fruit, spices, iron and touch of underbrush. A lot of flavor on the palate. Ripe cherry, plum, tart red fruit with nice acidity and some prominent tannin on the finish. Flavors linger in a nice, long finish. Probably several years of upside. I may try to keep my hands off of a bottle or two for a while, but the rest of the case I plan to enjoy this year. Enjoyable burg right now that was had for a reasonable price on release.
