Hyacinth Dinner (Hyacinth, St. Paul, MN): Very dark red color. PNP, drank a glass over 30 minutes. Same bottle as Bellissimo. Dense with black cherry fruit, succulent on the palate, young, tar, lacquer, firm tannins. It's all there.

Quick replacement for a flawed '08. PnP no formal note, served with one course at a restaurant, recorked and brought home. Note from later.
Nice mix of fruit, dried herds, dusty road on the nose. Palate shows black cherries, sage, stewed tomato, and coffee. Tannins are still pretty evident but not obtrusive.
