June 6, 2013 - not really a tasting note, just a memory jogger for me - drinks really well for $20, still a bit edgy, bit tannic, notes of currants and possibly an impression of prune; also cigarbox for me. Halfway through my case, every year need to remember to re-up this one

Your note reminded me I needed a case of the 2010 so I just bought from them @~$24 (sitting on a delayed plane so needed to kill time).
