  This was quite enjoyable, but has me planning to drink the other 06/07s I have on hand. Big nose of blue & black fruit, with some vanilla & sharpie beneath it. Big, round mouthfeel that puts sweet fruit & creamy oak to the forefront, with a touch of charcoal too. Delicious, but midpalate is a bit hollow & hot before transitioning to a nice finish centered on sweet oak. Enjoyable as a drink, but next to food (and the 01 Etude Rutherford) felt like more of a standalone drinker than anything else.

  My second bottle in the last few months. The first had signs of being past its prime (the fruit was replaced with mineral) but this bottle was very good. Not sure if it is bottle variation or storage issue.

  Similar tasting notes to last bottle in April. In the heart of its drinking window, will not require much decanting.

  Very good fruit, typical of a Mike Smith cab. Really like the Knefick fruit without regard to label. Holding its structure well enough but it did not require much decanting.
