  Still incredibly vibrant - balanced fruit and structured tanins - still has years to go.

  Dark In the glass, Unbelievable beautifully fruitful nose, smooth, velvety, sophisticated to the palette, perfect tannin.

  Really expressive nose with primarily blue fruit a little dark chocolate and spice. On the palate the fruit really jumps out and then starts to fade off as some dusty tannins take over at the end with a really nice finish. Could wait or drink now as still plenty there in my opinion to last at least a few more years without peaking. Really nice now just the same.

  During PNV week at the Melka tasting. Always great to see Shirley Roy doing the pouring. Consistent with prior notes, ripe fresh blackberries and dusty tannins.
  
  This vintage still improving. Great now and should get better with age

  At the Institute for Advanced Studies dining room - guests of Rob and Molly - had been planning this for a while. Terrific wine list, many at cost. This was a particularly good value - have had the 05-10 wines but have not tasted the 04.
  
  Ripe and rounded wine. deep fruits and smmoth texture. Blackberry, plums, choclate. Medium to long finish. Seems to be in its zone, tannins are mellowed. Doesn't seem like it will last as long as the 07 or 07, but still very good now.
  
  PS - great wine - any vintage - with beef and richer meats....
