December 30, 2017 - This wine is firing on all cylinders right now. Tons of plush fruit with firm tannins and super smooth. Wish I had more!

April 2, 2017 - Drank from a .375 ml, side by side with the 2009 from a .750 ml, both PNP. These two wines could not have been more different on the nose.
The 2010 had and old world nose, it could have been a ringer in a Bordeaux tasting. Musty earth, cedar, coffee and tobacco with elegant blue and black fruit.
The 2009 was either on the decline or coming out of a dumb phase as it was not as expressive as the 2010. I believe the latter. The 2009 had more of that classic Washington state nose, sweet blueberry and blackberry compote, chocolate and a mineral note I can only describe as fruity Flintsone vitamins.
My last bottle of both.

By Sean Sullivan
5/9/2013 (link) ***** points(Mark Ryan Winery Long Haul Red Wine Columbia Valley) Aromatically vibrant with currant, earth, floral notes, and chocolate. The palate is perfumed and rich with dark fruit and chocolate flavors with firm but well integrated tannins. A drop dead gorgeous wine with a long life ahead of it if you can keep your hands off it. 61% Merlot, 16% Cabernet Sauvignon, 12% Cabernet Franc, 9% Malbec, and 2% Petit Verdot. Klipsun, Ciel du Cheval, Red Willow, and Force Majeure vineyards. Aged 21 months in French oak (72% new). 14.8% alcohol. 1,100 cases produced. Sample provided by winery.
