95 Points

Tuesday, November 13, 2007 - drinking beautifully right now. velvety finish. i started with a dozen of these and have had one a year for the last 4 years. the last 3 bottles, the wine still tasted young to me.
this bottle seemed to mark a transition into a new phase of drinkability. nice smooth finish. the only fault of this wine that prevents it from scoring higher is
that the intensity of flavor is not as dense as i have tasted in higher scoring wines from 97, such as bryant, shafer hillside, harlan.
