  Hard to compare this to his Nine Suns bottling. This seems more subdued, almost backwards. Decanted and had over ~4 hours.

  Pretty amazing wine. Took out for a 15th anniversary (didn't have any 2008s left!) and it didn't disappoint. About where I would want to drink them and a touch old for my wife (but still "incredibly delicious"). This is showing the more complex flavors of green olive, cedar, dense red meat in addition to the core of black and blue fruits. A delicious, hypothetical blend of Rutherford and Oakville. Continues to change in the glass over 2 hours. Pretty stunning for a 14 year old wine.

  Still absolutely amazing. Was backwards, but after 30 minutes became so perfectly integrated! Very classic Rutherford dark fruit, cedar, and "dust". More complex and sexy than a powerhouse. Really floored everyone.
