Surprised that this is the first tasting note for a 2012. Deep, dark purple in the glass, classic napa nose, and a vanilla/cola finish that lingers for a while. Still quite hot on day 2. I think this has the structure to last several more years and will probably give my next bottle 2 more years to check in at the 10 year mark.

Well I missed the 10 year mark so now checking back after 3 years. Still just as enjoyable, not hot at all on day 2. See no need to hold any longer.
