wow! THIS bottle was simply amazing! this is what an excellent wine should taste like. I would recommend a 45 minute decant. This is a plush wine with hints of vanilla, berries, chocolate and espresso. It is chewy, dense and has many years to evolve. If u have this in your cellar I would recommend drinking some right now bc I think it is in an amzing state currently. Top wine in the $150 and under category. One of the top 5 wines I have had yr-to-date which include an 82 margaux, 90 harlan etc.....

Had last night with family. Pretty shut down. Classic Bordeaux undertones, but finish was pretty much non-existent. Not much nose or fruit. Its not bad, but nothing exciting going on here.

Had a bottle of the KB Rosellas at French Laundry this weekend. this came early in the meal after a 1992 Dom. This was the BEST Pinot I have ever had. Unreal nose. Smoothest, PUREST Pinot I have had. Only had one bottle and wished there were more. This was WOTN at table of 6 which included, 03 Araujo,03 Q. Creek, 96 L'angelus etc..... Awesome.
