April 27, 2024 - Agree with others that this is likely still in transition, and that it is currently more impressive than delicious. More backbone and class than the 2009. Great balance, it’s all there in the right percentages. And a long finish. If you can, wait for another 3-5 years with this one (maybe more). You’ll be proud of yourself if you do.

April 23, 2024 - Whoa this is drinking fantastic at this time. Please give it an hour or so decanting to let the woody aroma dissipate. Then pour yourself a nice sized glass of this beauty. Boysenberry, lavender, camphor and spring flowers explode in the nose. Middle weight in the mouth, toasty French oak, chocolate, tobacco and cherry highlight the finish. Yum!
