Nice rich feel, black/blue berry flavors that melt into a very pleasing long finish. Being for '09 it reflects the wisdom of a prior winemaker that seems to have gotten muddled in the more recent offerings from Stonestreet.

A fabulous blend of deep rich berries, balanced tannins, long finish and lovely hints of chocolate and a perfect earthy balance. Dried fruit aroma as it opened creating a lasting flavour and wonderful experience. A small amount of sediment but overall lovely rich garnet colour and round finish allowing a smooth and lasting taste. Great to experience again and compare.

Really nice wine that has aged well. It changes with decanting - we decanted 1 hour. Nice to sip, but great with food. A little higher acidity than anticipated.

Still smooth and silky. Flavor a bit muted. Cave cellared 10 years.
