Spectacular! I've had almost every vintage of Scarecrow with the exception of the '10, '11 and '12. This is definitely singing right now! Gorgeous blue and black fruit, mocha notes, baking spice and well balanced tannin. Gave it a 2 hour decant.

Upon popping this beauty the wine initially gave off aromas of deep black fruit followed by notes of espresso, spice and a touch of heat. After we let this sit in the decanter for an hour or so, the heat blew off completely. What we were left with was an absolute stunning wine! On the palate I was immediately hit with loads of blackberry fruit that was followed by notes of chocolate covered espresso beans, licorice, charcoal, black tar and some mild black pepper. What struck me about this wine was how beautifully integrated all these flavors and aromas were. It was like beautiful soft velvet blanket dancing all over my palate. The finish went on for 60+ seconds. This is how perfection is done! Wish I had a lot more of it:)
