Saturday, March 17, 2012 - Wow! I found this at Costco for $18 - 2 less than I paid for as a future. I decanted for two hours but the nose hit me immediately. Cherries and cream with hints of graphite and alcohol. Thick and viscous the wine is deep purple and grips the glass. Full bodied with red fruit, some menthol and a little heat, tannins and acid that makes me think this will last in the cellar for years to come. This has a long finish and will be difficult to stay away from. I am thrilled I went long on 09's and can't wait to try the big boys.
