Wow. No tasting notes since 2009. Filtered and decanted for 1 hour. Oak and cherry on the nose. Deep, inky color. Red fruits, cedar and oak on the tongue with a deep long finish. Very nice tannins that fill your mouth. I thought maybe this would be past it's prime, but it's holding up nicely.

Decanted for 45 minutes. Light color and nice bouquet with nice oak. Not much complexity/body for a wine of this price point therefore a bit disappointing.

The best of an 02-08 vertical tasting. Still amazingly fresh and alive, but drink up if you have any still sitting around. Beautiful with age!

The cab franc is still shining through on this blend, but I'm not sure how much longer it will hold up. Very light finish - tannins were slight.

Full fruit remains with soft tannins although not terribly complex. Continues to hold up very nicely. Quite enjoyable.
