Sunday, September 7, 2008 - Drank during a Chaine Dinner at Maia; my last eight bottles. The fill was into the neck and the cork sound. Opened about 3 hours prior to consumption and replaced the corks; no decanting. A pretty ruby-red color turning to amber at the edge. An intoxicating bouquet of ripe dark fruits (plums and blackberry), tapenade, creosote and tree bark; a hint of herbs/green pepper. Medium bodied, with good concentration, and generous character, and a long, complex finish. This was a brilliant purchase!!
