Two Bottle Vertical at the Lake (Bob and Anita's Place on Lake Wylie): Upon first whiff and taste, you would have thought the '07 was going to the better wine of the two. That changed quickly though upon vigorous swirling in the glass and a good "chewing" of the wine. This wine gives you the impression that there is a blockbuster wine within, but still lurking in the background as it is still too young and too shy to show its full power (or at least that is my hope). Blackberries, currant and nice tannins. Medium plus finish.
